I just can't find the downloadable files for the book. I have looked both in foundationphp.com and friendsofed.com... the closest I got was a demo view of the East-West Seasons case study. But no downloadable files! The link to the errata page only leads to the friendsofed site, which seems discontinued. Please help me to get the files for the book! I really need them, since I am a beginner in PHP and need all the help I can get. Otherwise, thanks for a great book! Vivvi, Sweden Hello,

I believe I finally found where to reach you. Re: EGDWCS3 Chapter 19 - I placed the gallery into my site to show a client - I gave you credit on the Portfolio page. The gallery works perfect in Firefox, and my son told me that it's working perfect in Safari. But, the 'Select gallery' drop down menu isn't working in either my son's IE6 or my IE7. (See the URL above.) I was having this same problem with the examples from the CD (again - only in I.E). 'England' thumbnails and pic appears when the page first loads as it should, but the menu says 'Japan.' In order to get the menu to change to another gallery, it's necessary first, to locate, then click on 'England' before the other links will work. (I was having this problem prior to adding the third gallery.) It doesn't appear as if you've had to address this problem before. My really client likes the gallery but he doesn't want to use it if we can't solve the I.E. glitch. I haven't updated to Spry 1.6 since I got CS3 - I also don't know where to look for the version I do have. Can you help me? I'm hoping it's some sort of I.E. hack code that I don't have. With warm regards, Teri David,

By definition, accessing a web page downloads everything to the user's computer - images and all. Even if you use a system that makes it difficult for someone to right-click and save the image, a determined person will find a way. All that's necessary is to use screen-grabbing software, which is cheap and perfectly legitimate (that's how I create the screenshots for my books). The best solution in your case would be to watermark the images with your company name. Do a Google search for "watermark images". You'll find lots of options.
