hiding the view source

Hi. I went onto a site today and when I clicked view source, as I nearly always do on sites I like to see how they were made, it didnt view the source and it said another script. How is this done?

This is done using javascript, but it's not reliable, as javascript isn't always cross-browser compliant and can be disabled in any case. There are other ways of getting the source code anyway (wget, for example). There are other threads on this here; search those for the full-blown discussion of the matter.

Don't bother attempting to hide your source - it's futile.
