hopefully this is an appropriate question for this list... I need to display a webcam picture from my site. currently I am just uploading the picture to a general folder on the site. when the user clicks on the link to the page, the picture comes up as a normal link - no problem. HOWEVER I am now finding that various competing sites are grabbing the image and linking to it, not using my page. tho the image has a copyright notice embeded it's kind of annoying, content theft usually is!
would it be possible to upload the image to a hidden folder on the site that is not accessible via the web, and have a CGI script on the page containing the image that feeds the image to the page. I would place a check for the referrer page in the CGI & deny the request if it is not coming from my site? thanks for any feedback. Al Hospers CamberSoft, Inc.
