Hi All,
I need to restrict the user from taking snapshot of my page. Is it possible or not?
I don't want to allow PrtScr button to user if my page is open.
Thanks.

Hi Vikram Agrawal,
You can't disable screen grabbing from the Web browser, it would only be possible by installing additional software on the user's PC.
There are some IRM (Information Rights Management) tools available that do that e.g. by protecting Windows/DirectX API calls and also monitoring video memory such as Oracle IRM or such as Microsoft's IRM technology.
Especially the latter might be of interest as there is also a Rights Management Add-on for Internet Explorer.
But as other already said, any IRM/DRM technology is controversy and you should understand that it most often will limit or annoy your users.
