Protect Pages - HOW?

alex1985
I create certain pages for my web-site, and I would like to protect them that no one can hack or see their source codes.

So, if everybody knows how to do it, please post a reply over here. List of the best ways, I can do it.

Thanks.

Any one who has access to the web server will have access to your files you store there. Once downloaded or viewed without being parsed by PHP the source code is viewable so there is no way to encrypt your source doe from that.

Any server-side scripting (such as PHP) will never be seen by visitors to your site as long as PHP is running on the server. The HTML output, however, is obviously visible, and there is very little you can do to protect that. All the code must be able to be understood by the browser, and therefore there will be an easy way for a visitor to see the plain HTML source code.

As long as your PHP is well written (clean any user input, sanitise database inputs, etc.) then you should have nothing to worry about.

All right! But some web-sites has pages like "dsjdsb" or some another symbols at the end of web address. That's looks good.

Because, I link my pages like in HTML. For instance, if you wanna go to the home page, you click on the link "Back", and when you actually pressed it, the user can see the file: "index.php". In other words, I wanna avoid this problem, and that's why I am asking for some protection of the pages. Just list the choices what can be done about it.

Hmm? You mean you don't want them to see what kind of server-side script you're running? You might want to look into mod_rewrite for the Apache server. With this, you can make your URLs appear like if the browser is accessing an HTML file, when really it's accessing a PHP or ASP or JSP, etc, script. Either that or give your HTML pages the ability to process PHP scripts.

But again, what's the point of obfuscating hos code, if no one can see his PHP source? As Al3x said, PHP is processed by the php parser, and it;s output is sent to a web browser... Internet is kind of a "open source", and it's contents are available to anyone who wants to see them... Even thsi forum can't protect it;s contents, only it's source code, that makes it work... And there's nothing you can do to protect your output, and I actually don't see any reason to... JavaScript protection scripts are stupid and pointless, and only annoy people...

I figure you want to hide your URL page addresses, so people don't see domain.com/page1.php, domain.com/page2.php etc., but only to show domain.com for every page...

As people upstairs suggested, look at Apaches mod_rewrite, and the use of .htaccess file...

Oh, and another thing... Try to write longer posts, with a bit more detail what you want done, because it's hard for us to guess what you want done... People here take time to help you, the leas you can do is put some time into writing your posts, to help them help you, and anyone else having the same or similar problem...
