True, unless you're used to saving a backup of the script you're currently working on as a phps in the same directory.patrikG wrote:The only people ever seeing your PHP-code are those with direct access to the server.
I made this mistake once, untill I discovered what the f:evil: I was doing....
lol
I am going to sell some expensive scripts which cost me and my team lots of time and effort. PatricG, you're right only my customers will see the script. But they can be my competitors willing to reverce engineering and stealing parts of the code. Customers also can use my script to create their own and then distribute it.
...
etc
...
So thing I am looking for is "PHP source code obfuscator"
It takes PHP file and renames all the variables, removes line breaks etc.
I am already testing stuff like POBS, but as too me it is not perfect.
For example it will wrong interpret lines like
$var1="this is one dollar = \$1";
Hope somebody can help me.

SourceGuardian.
The only problem is, to use php encryptors, your clients would have to install the decryptors on their server, this will lead to
->Laziness and complains
->Host not allowing it
->Complaining bout no source view
Because people like to see the source when they buy something, cuz if they buy it, they expect to be able to edit it

Sorry if I'm wrong but it seems that Zend Encoder or Zend SageGuard could be what you're looking for.
