[Javascript] locking contents-OK

[Peter Brunone]

	No, I mean the html source.  I doubt anyone would be concerned
that users could view the server-side script.

	If you're displaying HTML, no matter how you do it, there is a
way to take/save that content.  Even if you use this dialog box approach
you mentioned, *something* has to load the content into that box.  There
is a link somewhere.  If you View Source and find that link, and then
paste that link into another browser window, you suddenly have the
content; it's not that hard.

	Beyond that, if you load that "protected" page at all, it will
be saved in the browser's history (not just the linear navigation
history), and you can then pick it from the dropdown list that extends
from the address bar.  Even if it doesn't show up right away, the first
few characters of the domain name typed there will bring up a list of
comparable links, which will most likely include the URL of the page you
were trying to protect.

	Sure, not everybody knows how to do these things, but plenty do
-- students are a creative, resourceful bunch -- and if you have the
knowledge, it would take you about a minute to get what you want.

Huh.

Ouh, you mean the source-code together with the content And not 'only'
the 
content,
No, they can not. It's asp and you also can't do anything with the data 
displayed with web-page dialog.
You can't highlight (select no portion of it)
You can't use copy-paste command
You can't use right-click, cause dialogs don't react on such. You can't
print the conten's of it unles you've programmed it and defined a 
print button.
and there is no way you can review the sourcecode.
huh
