Yup, it's the exact correct answer, to a pointless question. Even Zend knows it's pointless to encode PHP. When you type "decode php" into Google you see ads for the Zend Encoder. Does that tell you anything? Encoding PHP, or licensing it, or compiling it to an extension, or any other silly obfuscation ideas you come up with, in the end, only keeps an honest person honest. If someone wants to reverse code that you have put in their possession, they will find a way. Deductive reasoning leads to two possible options: 1) Don't give the code to anyone. 2) Give the code to the client and accept the fact that it may get pirated. -- Greg Donald http://destiney.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
