sometimes i use javascript to change the action so it looks like one page, but when the user actually submits the form, it will go to another page.

Something like:

<form action="/testing/index.cfm" name="one" >
<input type="button" value="go" >
</form>

<script language="javascript">
function runMe(){
document.forms[0].action ="haha.cfm";
document.forms[0].submit();}
</script>

You could put the function in an external JS file, or better yet, write the entire form in JS.  That way it doesn't really get into the HTML source, but the form will know its there.

I have recently become aware that there are some websites out there that
are setting up search pages that are calling results templates on our
server.  We obviously do not want this to happen.  Apparently they found
our search pages, copied the code and made their own search pages. 

I have two questions, that may be pretty basic, but I have never run across
this problem before.

1)  How do you block your html pages from being able to view the source and
steal the code in the first place?  Is there a meta tag or something that
will disallow the View Source option?
2)  What is the best procedure for blocking someone from calling a template
on your server?

Password protecting the site is not an option, as the searches are for
public information.  So why, you say, do I want to block them.  Because we
want and need control over where traffic is coming into our site. 

Again, this may be pretty simple and I may be overlooking the obvious here,
but I am in kind of a crunch on this problem.

TIA for any help.

Milo
