Can somebody give me the code to hide the source code?

Can somebody give me the code to hide the source code?..I want the source code of my website to be invisible to everybody..When somebody right clicks anywhere on the page (except an image) and select View Source (or View Page Source depending on your browser). Or choose VIEW > SOURCE (or Page Source depending on your browser) from the menu bar.. I want no text to be visible on the text editor with the HTML for the page..So, can somebody please give me the right code compatible for all internet browsers such as internet explorer, mozilla firefox, etc.

There are many ways to appear to hide the source from a user, but there is always a work around. Don't forget the website gets cached on a users PC, here they will have the file that they can just open with notepad or something to easily see the code. You'd have to host the site on a secure server so that the user cant just click VIEW -> SOURCE.
Javascript will only slightly hinder someone.
What is it you're so keen on protecting?

Here is some code to prevent right-clicking, but not to hide the code...sorry!

<script language="Javascript">
// Do not remove this header
// Set the message for the alert box
am = "This function is disabled!";
// do not edit below this line
// ===========================
bV = parseInt(navigator.appVersion)
bNS = navigator.appName=="Netscape"
bIE = navigator.appName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer"
function nrc(e) {
if (bNS && e.which > 1){
alert(am)
return false
} else if (bIE && (event.button >1)) {
alert(am)
return false;
}
}
document.onmousedown = nrc;
if (document.layers) window.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN);
if (bNS && bV<5) window.onmousedown = nrc;
</script>

there is no point in hiding your source code. like saying "i want to build a greenhouse but i dont want anybody to see my plants"

not being derogatory, but, if your in the phase of "hiding" source code im guessing your a begginer. and im sure your code wont be too *hot*

html amongst othger things has to be processed by the browser. so there is NO way to hide it. unless you have a blank page.

Instering un needed javascripts and frames to hide source is a waste of your time - learn not to bother.

Every protection is crackable to those determined.... most are very very easy to circumvent.

There is also a code, not to disable right-click but to disable the menu you get with right click:

HTML Code:

oncontextmenu="return false"

In the <BODY> tag.
If you don't want people to see the source code at all, there are products you can google that helps you protect your page.

If you host on a secure sever (HTTPS), then some engines will have problems crawling it
