RE: ASP Pages

["wjnorth" <wjnorth () earthlink net>]

There is a way (I believe its good for both NetScrape and Internet
Exploder) to lock down view access to the source code of the site. I
can't remember how to do it, but I believe its either an HTML tag, or
it's a setting within IIS. If I find it I will pass it through,
otherwise do a search on disabling HTML source code, hopefully that will
pop up something.

Additionally, you can lockdown access within IIS so that everyone can
only read the page. Another option would be to patent your product, that
way anyone stealing it is breaking the law. Stupid-n-silly I know, but
if we want to go hyper technical I'm sure I can fish out some good IIS
lockdown guidelines.

Hi all,

We are currently developing a project management system in ASP, and I am
a little concerned about code stealing. Given that the asp pages are
visible to everyone, how difficult is it for someone to download the
actual asp code? (As opposed to the html that the page generates).

Also, there is the option for installing the site on a clients server.
Is there any way to encrypt this so that the server can read it, but the
clients cannot?

Thanks,
