Hi,
I'm wondering if it's possible to block the abillity to download objects of type file (e.g. right-clicking on a file and choose "Save Link as...")?
Zope does not have a mechanism for this, as one HTTP request looks like any other. However I think that it might be possible to 'hijack' the right click using some javascript on the page. You'll have to investigate that yourself elswhere, though.
I'm asking because I have a site with PDF-files, which I want the users to read through their webbrowser (via the PDF-plugin), but not to download.
I'm going to guess that you're 'framing' the PDF with advertising in some way, and don't want to lose the advertising revenue? A more user friendly approach would be to include a low key sponsorship within the PDF itself. HTH, Michael Bernstein.
