How do I keep my webpage code private? I see other sites where I try to view
the html and all I get is a blank white screen.
 
When you view the source of these pages, scroll down the page and you will
see the content.

It's not technology. It's a stupid trick. All they do is put a whole mess of
line feeds above the HTML, and inexperienced users are fooled into thinking
that the code isn't there. Since a browser can only read HTML text, it must
be there. Period.

Why don't you check your previous post, numbnutz? Did you think your
question was less stupid the second time?

Talk about changing a thread!

simple answer : you can't. when a web page is viewed, it is actually being
downloaded to the user's web cache (on their disk)....so if they know where to
look they'll find your code without trouble.

The "no right click" scripts can be worked around, and besides there is a "view
source" on the main menu under "View" in IE and these scripts do not consider
this.
