Attaching files to catalogue records
Greetings Koha Users I followed a tutorial on Attaching Files to Catalogue Records, accessed from: http://kohageek.blogspot.com/2015/12/attaching-files-to- catalog-records.html I followed the instructions and very thing worked. Question? 1. How do I prevent the attached file "downloading". 2. Is it possible to tweak something so that a patron can only read the attached document on-screen and not downloading it. I have Koha 16.05.01 ON Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I installed using: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages Please help me. Or is there another way of achieving this? Thank you very much everyone. Sitali CS -- Charles Lwanga College of Education, P. O. Box 660193, Monze, ZAMBIA. Mobile: +26 0979 869471 +26 0966 869471 SKYPE: Libsitali

No. It is downloaded to be displayed.

Hi, On an AS-IS basis both # 1 & #2 are not possible. for the simple reason that whatever is rendered / displayed by the browser is essentially been downloaded *to* the device already.The max you can do is make it difficult for the user, but hardly impossible for anyone with more than simple basic internet browsing skills. what you suggest is only possible through use of end-to-end DRM i.e. the content, the viewer/browser and the computing device on which the viewer is running/installed, but that is a discussion I would rather not indulge in. cheers -idg -- Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 Blog : http://blog.l2c2.co.in IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg On Thu, Sep 15, 2016 at 9:15 PM, Chrispin Simasiku Sitali <libsitali@gmail.com> wrote:
