microsoft has a feww script encoder which works well, but it's not the best algorithim. In fact, there are plenty of free decoders available, but it does slow down the "common" thief.

What code, in that case, do you have that is worth hiding?

Protect from the common thief?

Well, you could create a long list of .js files:

In your document:

 <script>
document.write("<scr" + "ipt " + " sr" + "c=\"bo" + "b.js\"" + "> </script>");
</script> 

And in bob.js put another long line of compucated code linking to another .js file etc until you reach the js document reaching the javascript code. Alas the thief could just link to bob.js but just put credits in. He gets the code, you get advertising!

Alternatively block the right click - place this in the head tag:

<script>

<!-- var debug = true;

function right(e) {

if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape' && (e.which == 3 ¦¦ e.which == 2)) return false;

else if (navigator.appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer' && (event.button == 2 ¦¦ event.button == 3)) {

alert('Why are you bothering?');

return false;

}

return true;
}
document.onmousedown=right;

if (document.layers) window.captureEvents(Event.mousedown);

window.onmousedown=right;

//-->

</script>

Well there you go!

Whoops, I don't think that block right click script works. This does though:

<script language="javascript">

<!--

function rightguard() {

if (event.button==2) {

alert('Do not bother')

}

}

document.onmousedown=rightguard

//-->

</script> 

Place that in the head tag. You can change alert() to another command like confirm().
