How to hide the source of an html page - GoFuckYourself.com

Blastsex · 10-06-2002, 07:38 AM

I was wondering how I do to make my html source of my page non available to see when people select view source in their browser.
Can someone help me out?

Not possible: you can make it harder for folks
to view the html but it's impossible to make it
invisible. If your browser can see it, so can the user.

There is probably some server side script that will encode/decode/display your pages for you...

there are some JAVA solutions that will produce garbled source code when somebody tries to view it.

i haven't seen anybody bother to do it in a long time.

it's part of the Net, people steal code.

The only real way to hide it is to use invisible ink. I think Macs can do it or something.

Hiding Web Pages From Idiots 101:
At the top of your document, put an html 'comment' that says something like
MSParse Error: 17283.22 Document Could Not Be Found

Then hit your enter button about 85 times

Then start the code for your page.

Most idiots will see the comment and think something's gone wrong, won't see anything else on the screen, and will close the window.
Real webmasters don't fall for this, though. They just roll their eyes and scroll.
