Hi there,
I'm new here, what i would like to know is that is it possible to disable visitors to our site from downloading the whole html page through using HTML editor programs like frontpage or notepad? I know if you disable the right click they wont be able to see anything, but they can still use frontpage and other HTML editors to download the whole site. Not that we are extra stingy on sharing ideas or what but sometimes we spent countless hours on our jobs and all they need is just to hit one button and everything is on their hard disk. Sorry for beeing so straight forward here. I'm not sure if this same topic has been posted or not but i've tried browsing through the forum before posting it here and i didnt find any similliar issues. Thanks again and hope to get some responds from anyone in this forum.

Not gonna happen.

No way Jose.

You can deter casual users and n00bs, but you will never prevent it period. And if someone is trying to get it, they probably know how.

You can also do things like encrypting HTML before uploading, but even that can be circumvented.
