||> do any of you know if it is possible to hide ||> the html code from the user?? thanks || || You can't hide html code, but you can use another features like server |side ||javascript, or ASP, depending on the server you're using, to hide the real |page. | |This is an _excellent_ point, but you must keep in mind that the "real page" |is a very loose term. Whatever page the user ends up seeing in their web |browser is always viewable HTML source. The "real page" can range anywhere |from a complex database, to a web-based discussion board / mail list, "guest |book," on-site search engine, etc. etc. etc. The source for these things are |completely hideable. But the html they generate and send to the browser... |well, if it's HTML source, and it's in the browser, it's viewable. That's |the standard. |
