Dave,
What if you were to encrypt the path with ColdFusion, and then stuff the
encrypted string into a JavaScript variable like so:
var daPath =
'<cfoutput>#Encrypt('/clients/images',myKey,"DESEDE")#'</cfoutput>;
Then whenever you need to display an image, use JS to decrypt the
variable (a view source would only show the encrypted string). I have
no idea if such a scheme would work, but I'd think you could find an
encryption algorithm that both CF and JS understand. This method would
not stop a determined hacker, but it would deter the casual surfer.
Also, this would offload the work to the user's browser; which of
course means you might run into browser compatibility issues.
