Topic:

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML);Active Server Pages (ASP);PHP Scripting Language

I just write one html code file as attached, and it run in IE broswer as simple html.file.

The question how I can avoid the code to be seen by other users except the code output ?
I have google it, someone say I need to switch the html code to asp and php code.
And I test the php and asp code before in W3C school webiste, but php and asp code is also easily seen by viewers in web.

Any suggestion for internet language to hidding the code at least some part of it ?

If possible, could you provide a simple code for study or good wesite to start.

Please advise

Duncan

we could not see their code because they call it in javascript function

Sorry, but computers don't work like that. The only reason you could not see their "code" is because you did not know where to look.

Here is a brief breakdown of the client-server protocol that underlies the WWW. For more information google the writings of Roy Fielding.

Clients, mostly personal computers, make requests. Servers, mostly racks of Linux machines, make responses. The internet connects these things together so people can use the WWW by acting as clients and making requests of servers. Web browsers are computer programs running on the client computers. They speak a language called HTML. They also have a CSS interpreter, a JavaScript interpreter, plug-ins for Flash and other file types, etc. The information you see on your computer screen is rendered visible by the browser. Anything and everything that appears on your screen came through your browser, and if it came through your browser it can be stored, copied, decoded, read, modified, retransmitted, etc. Trying to hide this information is a fools errand. The whole purpose of browser output is to create information that can be displayed, stored, copied, decoded, read, modified, retransmitted, etc.! Trying to hide or obscure this is like writing in a book with invisible ink. It may be fun for you, but it's useless and contradictory to purpose.

The servers that prepare the information are a different thing. Server-side languages like PHP and ASP and ColdFusion manipulate data that is on the server (not the client). They create HTML, CSS and JavaScript that gets sent to clients in response to the client requests. The client does not see or understand (and does not need to see or understand) the server side of the process. This programming and data model can remain hidden from client view. Example: The code snippets contain (1) HTML and (2) PHP that creates HTML. You will see the same results from both of these, and you will not be able to tell which method was used to create the browser output.

<h2>Hello World</h2>

1:

Select All Code

<?phperror_reporting(E_ALL);echo "<h2>Hello World</h2>";die();

1:2:3:4:

Select All Code

This is called the RESTful interface. It is simple and elegant. It exposes what is intended to be exposed and obscures what is best kept as a secret of the server. There is a Wikipedia article on REST that you might find interesting.

You can only hide server-side stuff. Like the HTML, any javascript or executed by the client will also be visible. If you dig around in the browser cache you can find it all.

Depends. What are you trying to hide? The HTML that the browser uses to display the page will always be visible.

today i test it with firebug, debugger , all code could been seen even asp file

So in other words, if what you said correct, the only way to hidden the code is converting all javascript code
into php so people could not read it , Is it right ?

Expert: Dave Baldwin replied at 2024-04-02 13:46:04

Javascript has to be stored where it can be downloaded or else the browser can't download it and run it. For the browser to run it, it has to be listed in the source code for the web page. I can look at the source by clicking on "View Source" and get the location of the javascript file and then download it.

aarontmosky,

Clarify it a little bit, you mean, even I stored the script code into other js file stored in my doma in site.
People could also download it, Is it right ? but I don't put it into my ftp directory, how they download.

And if using firebug add-on firefox, please could read all hidden javascritp code, is it right ?

in other words, if what you said correct, the only way to hidden the code is converting all javascript code
into php or asp code so people could not read it , Is it right ?

ASP, ASP.NET and PHP are server side languages and you can't see that code. However, they send HTML to the browser and that can be seen along with any javascript and CSS. If the browser can't 'see' it, it can't be executed.

There are things you can do on the server and things that have to done in the browser. Anything done in the browser can be seen.

Yes, but you can just download the js file or watch it process in firebug.
You are asking how to print a book so people can read the words but not see the letters. You can't. This exact same question pops up every few weeks an we give the exact same answer every time.

how can I call javascript function so people could not read my code ?
I mean I put all of my code into javascript function and call it on

init is javascript script file stored in my domain

<body init():>

<body>

IS it possible, I have seen a lot of website , we cound not see their code because
they call it in javascript function and in asp ?

Expert: Dave Baldwin replied at 2024-04-02 11:09:25

Anything you use to put a page in my browser can be found and downloaded. 'Hiding' code does not increase your security at all. Any method of hiding code just hides it from the people who mostly don't care. The people who might care, from crooks to government agencies, have ways of seeing your code.

Php and asp eventually output HTML which can always be seen by a browser. What you can't see is the php or asp Source code that created the HTML. The only way to hide more is to use JavaScript but its never really totally hidden because for the browser to display it the user can read it. You could do all you pages as image maps but that's just silly
