you could do that through a htaccess file.

Allow and enable access from certain IP (your server IP)

Say you have a permanent IP and you want to administer the site via /admin and protect the directory from the rest of the world once ‘n’ for all, then you will want the following .htaccess directives:

order deny, allow
deny from all
allow from 12.34.56.78

I think this is what you need

Does the site rely on the .js file for everybody to use the site ? or just for your use ?

BJ · 04-20-2011, 12:45 AM

everybody needs it or the site does not work, if someone has java disabled it offers an alternative. I just don't want people looking at the .js file

If everybody needs to use the .js file for it to work, then putting it in a password protected area will prevent browsers from loading it, thus the site will not work.

right...
you can just encode it somehow...
but it can be decoded eventually

**woj** · 04-20-2011, 05:21 AM

you can make it harder, but you won't be able to hide it completely...

And decoding it is always trivial. All one must do is replace "eval" with "alert" and it will pop up a box with the full code.
Some encoders may require that "eval" be replaced with "alert" more than once, but they are all trivial.

if someone has java disabled it offers an alternative. I just don't want people looking at the .js file

"fart" and "fort" are two words that sound similar, but otherwise are completely unrelated.
Similarly, "JavaScript" and "Java" are two completely unrelated things created at different times
by different companies. The people selling LiveScript renamed it "JavaScript" because at the
time Java was a hot buzzword. It's the same thing as Xbox 360, Anderson Cooper 360,
Symantec Norton 360, Nordic Track 360 etc.

In other words, turning off Java affects your JavaScript just as much as turning off your XBox
affects Anderson Cooper - not at all, even though they both have "360" in their name.

I laughed. Good analogy.
