Then you're doomed. Basically the Browser has to download the code in a readable form, that's the way JavaScript is. There are ways to make it harder to get at, but most people who would actually care to see your code know how to defeat them easily. About the best you can do is put copyright notices in your code to let people know that they're violating the law if they steal your code. (*Chris*)
