Hi,

Not sure if the subject is correct. I'm building an image cropping
tool using MochiKit.

In IE, I have a cosmetic issue:

When I move the mouse over the div containing the image, I get this
dreadful floating 'thing' that lets you print, save, etc an image. Is
there a 'recommended' way to stop this from happening?

My current workaround is to place a <div> over this image with a
background-color of white and a transparency of 0.01. But I'd
consider this a 'hack'. Is there a better way to stop this by
filtering the mouse over event somehow?

Thanks,
Juergen

I don't know about recommended, but can't you make the image the
background of the div to avoid that? That would be the first thing
I'd try, FWIW (probably not much).

Interesting suggestion. I shall give that a whirl. Thanks!

Use this statement in the head section of you page:

<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" /> <!-- Disable IE6 image
toolbar -->
