I think of obfuscation as more of a way to protect your intellectual property. It can help impede clients from taking your code (which you own, you merely sold the implementation) and using it for their own purposes, potentially cheating you out of a future contract. For those who live off of freelance projects, obfuscation can simply be a little peace of mind. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
