re-nesting your top-post
did you looked at the link i given above
Thanks
Yes. This is Flash. I can still take screenshots of it while it’s
running, and even if they kink the screenshot control keys, I can set
Grab to do a timed screenshot. When I say functionally impossible, I
mean in the face of a sufficiently motivated visitor. If you don’t
want to share it, don’t share it. Don’t break the Web.
What part of “not possible” are you unclear on? Even the Flash files
can be scanned and the text extracted - the Learnerstv link you posted
shows up in Google searches. More info on that here:
BTW, the original link you’ve posted also looks like they’re
stealing content:
It’s really very simple, if you don’t want the user to be able to copy
text, then just don’t ever display it to the user–there is no other
solution to your “problem”.
The guy is saying that he is fine with the end users taking a screenshot
of
the page, but he doesn’t want the users to simply copy and paste the
text in
txt files.
I know the requirement is absurd.
But, just rephrasing the question for others to have a better idea of
what
you want.
In my opinion, there is no gem/plugin for anything like this and why
should
be.
You are asking people in the wrong area, this is something that deals
with
the presentational aspect of the text, so put up the question on HTML,
javascript forums.

No. We’re done with this topic. I think the answer has been pretty
clear. If
you don’t mind people screen capturing the Flash text then use Flash.
Every
other option, including gems, will give you a text response that can be
copied or manipulated even before JavaScript is loaded or in some cases
by
passing JavaScript totally.
Anything posted to the Internet can be copied. This is why financial
institutions do not allow for the posting of certain information to
their
websites and online banking applications.
