No Save image As option how to download a picture?

Some web pages have the Save image As... option disabled on a right click when you try to save an image. Let me show you how to get that image anyway using Firefox.

Most of the websites have the Save Image As... option enabled so you can save them by right clicking the picture and choosing Save Image As...

 
 
2.
 

But some of the websites have this options disabled but in most cases you can download the picture anyway and this is how you do that.

Right click the image and choose Inspect Element.

 
 
3.
 

Window with the page code shows up and the part of the code with the image you want to download should now be already selected.

 
 
4.
 

Click to choose the line starting with <img.

<img is a HTML tag which displays an image on a website.


 
 
5.
 

Right click the selection and choose Copy Outer HTML.

 
 
6.
 

Now copy paste it into the Firefox url field.

Delete the existing url and press Ctrl + V to paste it.

 
 
7.
 

You pasted the whole img tag code now you need to delete everything except the url to the image.

Select and delete everything before of the http ...

 
 
8.
 

... and everything behind the name of the image file.

Images usualy end with .jpg, .png, or gif. so you end up with something like http://www.website.com/the_picture.jpg.


 
 
9.
 

Now press Enter to load the image ...

 
 
10.
 

... right click it and choose Save Image As...

Now you can save/download image to your computer.
