Hi, recently in an effort to start cleaning up my scripting (I'm pretty sloppy) and to reduce redundancy, I began putting database connection strings in an include file for all of my ASP.
I've been doing this for a while now, but then it occurred to me the other day that anyone could view the source code of my page, add the .inc file onto the end of the web address in their browser and then view the connection string right there in their browser!
Does anyone else do this? What are the potential problems? Is it a problem? Any input would be great!
Thanks,
Rexolio
