I don't think it's a big deal that you can't view source. What I do find silly is that you can't copy and paste from the site itself. That's a VERY common way for people to pass information along via email, or if you're a journalist. Taking it away is a bad idea.

If you view source you'll see some encrypted JS near the top. 1) view source 2) close that browser that had loaded the page 3) copy the encrypted string of each of the 2 encrypted blocks from the source 4) do this for each: <cfset myVar1 = urlDecode("the pasted string")> 5) output each variable 6) view source to see what they are up to....pretty slick IMHO Note that when you output it you'll lose you copy & paste abaility again until you close the browser. Comments on this? I think it's technically cool, but a BAD idea to take control of a users computer like that. Isn't Google going to start flagging sites that contain malicious software?? ;-) Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
