How to protect live preview against copying?

Hey Billy, I’ve been using a method written by Radykal. Send me an email and I’ll send you the script.

Can you post a link to the script that you use, so other authors can protect are scripts or e-mail me too.

• Minify CSS /JS/XHTML

writing as a purchaser, and ignoring the fact that I would pay as it is the right thing to do, paying for the item then gives you the ability to have support.

You could try my HTML compiler… but there is no 100% safe way to keep people from copying something that their computer has already downloaded.. so if my sales were depending on it, I would make a video instead of a live preview.

Minified code can be beautifed.

But you could use a free screen-to-video capture tool like CamStudio or VirtualDub to create a video demo of the app and then throw it up on youTube and ask the reviewer to embed it in the item’s preview. That’s the only fool proof way I can think of.

Personally, I don’t buy anything unless I can view the preview. That way I can get a good idea of what I’m going to be working with.

I was thinking the other day, for protecting css that is.

Use php to generate 5 random id,s

Then use lesscss to utilise those random id,s

Then split your css file into say three css files and add trig points within each that reference the different css files, like a @import.

Then each time preview is run the ids are different, and unless you know the id.s which have a htaccess rewrite then the css file would become useless or painstakingly annoying to decrypt.

Or was i on another planet at the time lol
