{ if (go.which == 3) { alert(popup); return false; } } } if (document.layers)

baranitharan - I do not believe there is anyway to do what you want, File -> Save As and File -> Print are functions of the browser that you have no control over as they are not part of any web standard (i.e. HTML, Javascript, CSS etc). They are things that the browser designers put in because they thought they might be useful.

sashi - the things you suggest are worst than useless IMO because they are not deterant to someone who knows what they are doing, all the do is make a site a little more irritating to use.

If you are trying to prevent someone copying something you are publishing on the web then there is only 1 answer, don't publish it. Remember just by displaying it in there browser most people already have a copy of you item in there browser cache which is easy enough to access.

Welcome back, baranitharan. Whoa! 15 months after your original post!

Listen to the advice from Banfa. JavaScript cannot disable these things. What you should consider is why you want to do this in the first place. If it's to protect images, just watermark them. Everything appears in the cache anyway, so disabling Save As has no effect on someone that is determined enough.

How to close open/save/cancel dialog box in IE 8 when user click on some button.

please sugest its urgent.

**acoder** · Mar 15 '10, 11:52 AM

So you have a dialog open and you want to close it by clicking a button? or did you want something else?

**AKS009** · Mar 15 '10, 12:31 PM

i need to bypass that open /save/cancel when i will click to open pdf in my web application how can i do that using some code or somewhere else./

**acoder** · Mar 15 '10, 12:40 PM

If it's a browser functionality, you'll have to check the browser settings.

Do you want the PDF file to display in the browser without a dialog box or do you want to force a download?

**AKS009** · Mar 15 '10, 12:49 PM

basically i have an application which will generate a consolidate pdf for all the user information at last page when user click on a button, i m calling window.open method to open that pdf in a new window,

it is working fine in IE 6 and IE 7

but in iE 8 its is opening addition popup that is open/save/cancel ,i want to avoid that using some code not using browser setting.

**gits** · Mar 15 '10, 01:08 PM

you might try to add a Content Disposition header with inline and filename before sending the pdf from the server ...

kind regards

**AKS009** · Mar 15 '10, 02:48 PM

can u just tell me where i need to put this code.. in java file or in JSP...

**gits** · Mar 15 '10, 03:37 PM

you will probably have a line where the pdf is send/printed in your code? probably it will be located in a jsp-page? ...
