Does anyone know how to turn on this feature in IExplorer 7 ???
 

In IExplorer 6, I used to have this feature of hovering on a pic then seeing that small rectangular (see attched pic1) that allows you to copy it. But I missed that in IE7.

The second pic shows the Advanced Tabs of Internet Options in IE7, for ease of reference.
I don't seem to be able to find an option to do that!
What's the actual setting I need to activate on the Advanced Tab of Internet Options?

Any help is appreciated :)

Stop using IE.. ;)

How is that answer helping this person with what they want to know?

@ falconKing - Just do a right-click and save picture as. I'm not sure exactly where that setting is or even if they still have that now.

I second that. :up:

I 'third' that!?!?! :up:

I'm very happy with Firefox! try to install PicLens on it :D

and Shelley you're 1 post away from the Thousand... how are you going to celebrate?

Well, I suppose if I wanted to lower my standards, I could go with FF.

Hey, well it was a joke.

But to answer your question, as an owner of any type of website, it would help to not use the worst rendering engine in the world as your browser, wouldn't it?

I hope you don't use IE then.. cause "standards" don't get any lower than they do with IE. And by "standards" I am of course meaning web based.

I like IE. I tried FF and it sucked! FF is the one that doesn't render right. IE was a standard long before FF came along. And it still is.

I just use IE for my @LIVE's email

Whoa.. man.. I honestly don't mean anything really mean by this, but I'll let that post of yours show how ignorant you really are to web standards.

IE is in no way standard. I honestly think that if you tried (and perhaps you have) to create a website that doesn't use tables for anything other than tabular data, and use clean semantic markup along with CSS, then you too will become a fan of anything but IE.

This is coming from me. I have created probably close to 1,000 websites over the past 2.5 years at my job.. There has only been maybe one time that IE didn't give me additional hours of work to "fix". Yes, fix.

I'm a markup nazi, and I don't use any unnecessary code.. so you would think that if a browser had any sort of clue, it would understand clean semantics. Not IE.

But to each his own. At least you say that you have tried alternatives and haven't liked them.

Can we please turn this thread back to the original question, instead of having yet another thread where members are trying to convince eachother that their browser of choice should also be the choice of others.

Last few OT posts removed.

Read the above and stick to it please, otherwise posts will be removed and infractions issued. Thank you.

Thanx for participating, and thanx againg for cooling the hot debate :)

BTW, just read that IE7 does not allow the image toolbar :(:(:(

That is why I said you have to do the right-click and save picture as. ;)

Thanx, Boofo, but some sites use javascript to prevent you from right-clicking. That"s when IE6 Image Toolbar comes in handy, as it is not affected by that script!

True, I forgot about that. Well, there is always the cache. ;)

You're right, the image toolbar isn't in IE 7. It used to be internet options - advanced tab, under multimedia, check "enable image toolbar" for IE6.

I dunno...
But this is 'JUST' the right corner of my Firefox:

- I got my dedicated Search Engine for my site,
- Can Text Message nationwide for free
- Can call any phone # International by one click
- Got my Agenda right at hand
- Can FTP to 6 servers at the same time
- Got 2 features hide [PicLens, ShippingTracker]

My stats show that 72% [more than Obama] surfers use FF

and I heard is more flexible for programmers than any browser

and it's just my right Corner :D

And what does this have to do with enabling a feature in IE7?

I think you're being tested, Marco.

Always go off topic here, but you maybe interested in reading this (vb.org staff and other admins) :

I'm sure the staff at the org is way more capable than you give them credit for.

Boofo, you have the wrong end of the stick - I was just being helpful.

LOL Wrong end of what stick?

At the end of the day the only "stat" that matters is that you use whichever browser you like best, and code for all of them. ;)

Please stay on topic.

If people are STILL doing this, they need to be smacked around. There's many ways around it... Disable javascript, and you'll be able to right click anything you want to.

Or: View->Source

and get the direct link from the HTML. :)

The old man is right.

IE was the "standard" for a long, long, long time. Sure it did a lot of things it shouldn't have done but if you wanted the end user to be able to read your web page in the world of 1995 then you'd had better made sure it looked okay in IE.

Yes there was Netscape..and many others. But IE was what the people had and IE was the standard your coded your webpages to.

These days we're working hard on building real standards and having all the browsers conform to them. But there will always be that one browser that holds the most market share, and that browser will always be the "standard" that people code their webwares for. :)

Don't ever tell me you're using "fully standards compliant code" because I know for a fact that there is not a browser in the world that follows the standards to the T. ;)

Ok, after giving up on IE7, I found a more powerful alternative (when it comes to showing the Image Toolbar) in Avant Browser, which beautifully does what I missed in IE7!

Too bad, Microsoft :(, a development should be to the better, not to the worse!!!

I'm sure they couldn't care less.. as they hold 75% of the internet in the palm of their crippled hands.

Windows took another step back in usefulness.......cf:

Windows Photo Gallery not showing .gif

A third step backward is that in Vista, you can't lock your desktop icons :(:(

Vista does not allow locking desktop icons

this is really disgusting !!!!!

Photo Gallery never loaded .gif files for me. They always loaded in Internet Explorer, even under Windows XP.

Who uses Desktop Icons? I turn those off and have a Desktop menu on my system bar. A lot less screen real estate used and I can organize them via drag and drop quite easily. Not only that they are accessible without minimizing any applications. I don't think I have seen my desktop in two weeks.
