How do I hide html from "View source"

[Dragonscar]

As a novice in html, how do I hide the html code from "View source" in
browsers?

Also, how do I prevent download of copyright material?

Thank you,

Laura

Question 1, you can't.
Question 2, you can't.

When it's viewed in a browser it's already downloaded to the computers Cache files.

Okay, then why do I often run across pages that, when using the View menu and
clicking on "View Source," nothing happens?

And on some sites, when I try to "Save picture as" (with right-click) I get
a pop-up saying that this cannot be downloaded or saved as it is copyright
protected?

Are these html issues or FrontPage issues?

Actually what I'm trying to protect is an encryption key - not a whole site.

Thanks.
Laura

Those sites use javascript to disable the right click menu.
However, as I stated the content is already in the computers browser cache files.
( temporary internet files )

As for protecting an encryption key, you don't need to.
If it's your public key, it's only useful on your computer,
assuming it's your computer that created the "key pair."

Remember, people use your "public" key to encrypt files and mail to send to you.
Anything encrypted with your "public" key can only be decrypted on your machine
with the key ring that contains your private key.

fwiw, I dabble in Gnupg and pgp.

How do I hide messages from people who want to hide html from "View source"?

[Dragonscar]

Thank you for the links. They are all a good education.

Okay, then why do I often run across pages that, when using the View menu
and clicking on "View Source," nothing happens?
Because IE has a bug that makes that happen when your cache is too full.
get a pop-up
Because someone who is ignorant programmed it that way.
ATTENTION: If you are a burglar, the house is locked and you can't come in.
If you're not a burglar, then the key can be found in the flowerpot.

You may not have liked the answer, however that is currently the only way to protect your content
from folks on the internet.

Sorry, Thomas. I thought you'd know I was kidding. I got the message.

Actually, what I was trying to figure out is what is used on all those
places that have limited access to special sections, e.g. for a customer to
log on to their own information in a company's file. We are using an
encryption algorithm, but it shows up as part of the html. How is it that
Banks limit access to information ONLY on your own account? Then, maybe,
they don't, and it's only the honest people (or the completely ignorant) that
don't try to access others' information.

You would need to use a custom written application written in ASP, ASP.net, PHP, etc. and a database
(Access, MySQL, MS SQL) to accomplish.
