    Or you just don't care whether or not they may use your script on their sites that you paid them for!

    I would prefer a programmer who owned similar sites to me, cuz then they'd know exactly what to do.

    As far as them using the programs on his site, just state in the contract that he/she can't use it, or get a cheaper rate if they intend to use it also.

      I don't care.
      I've paid for 'customization' for some certain scripts and paid $100's, if not $1000's for that..and then they offer the same features a few updates later in their own script for everyone.
      I'm cool with that, as long as I get what I want, I don't care if others do too.
      Maybe I'm too nice.
      ..and I'm off.

        If they programmed it, why not? That's being kind of anal.

          Because you want a lead over your competitors. Plus, if you didn't bring it to his/her attention, he/she wouldn't have thought of it.;)

                  Enforcing a contract is not so easy when the person is not in the same country as you are.

                      dont sign contracts with people you cant enforce them with

                      If they are in the same area as you , they aren't going to sign a non-disclosure no-competition contract until they have heard the idea ( thus its too late )

                        They'd know what to do ... but at the same time, they can copy your stuff ... depending on the project, if it haven't been done before, I'd say ... don't.

                                in a perfect world you wouldnt have to worry but this isnt. i'd be wary of all those ppl who say they'll do any script for $50 etc, and rather deal with a company with a history so they have a bit more at stake. i've heard too many nasty stories about solo ppl screwing their employers once things go sour in the first year..
