Disable Download

[soborno]

Hi there, this is my first post. I have to say I´m new with Alfresco share and I would like to know if this can be done:

There´s one folder I need to be accesible for everyone, but without the option of downloading or copying any of the documents there.
Can this be done?

Anyway, thanks for the time.

What do you understand the word "download" means? What about "accessible"?

Do you mean that people should be able to see that the documents exist, but cannot read them?

Indeed the users need to read the documents, but without the option of "Download" to their local machines, it should be only accesible with the browser

That's not an easy task in a web-application. Pretty much everything is accessable via a URL if you have READ permissions. You would need to create a component specifically to display the content in (probably in Flash or Java Applet or something that you could completely control if the user could copy+paste or View Source from it), and completely remove all download actions from the app. You'd also need to hide access to the Explorer app or any other way they could potentially get to the content via a url.

Cheers,

Kev

Well I guess it`s not going to be easy… If I`m able to succeed in it, I will post it here.
Thanks

Is there any success?
