I have noticed that some newer websites have a codes that prevents you from viewing their code and saving thier website, I would really like to have that on my site, can someone please tell what it is and where i put it in my HTML. For an example of what I am talking about, check out and/or and you will see that you can't view their source code and you can't save their web site.

yeah Planet Tony Hawk just switched everything back and lets you view the source now, the webmaster was actually instructed to by his hosting comapny (GameSpy) but FFOnline is a final fantasy site...it's actuallt the largets one out there, it is coded in PHP and you can't do anything on the site with Saving it or viewing the source code, the guys that work their really know thier HTML becuase they have done some major stuff that no one has ever thought possible with the lanuage, I might have to ask them how they did it, but know how umm....rude they are, they would probaly think I was trying to steal one of their codes and something and try to get my site shut down....they really are like that, they have a good site...but they really need to develop some good personalities. Once again...their site is maybe it will work typed like that...i dunoo what is wrong here

I have just been to ffonline and I can "view source" and "save as".

Doesn't work always though. To be honest with you, I thought the ability to view source was a really good way for people to learn, that's how I learnt HTML and I would never want to stop someone else learning in the same way. If you really want to stop people right clicking (one way to save your images from being stolen although there is "Print Screen"
