Hi I do agree with you that a persistent nd smart person can get the HTML but at least can we make his task a bit tougher??? Forget about entire HTML Can we scramble HTML of a single control ? Disabling right click is not a smarter solution as user can easily view source thru menu itself. Thanking you VyankateshS.

If you want to hide it from the end user who is viewing your site from a browser? If so there's no way to do it. Your browser *has* to have that sent in clear-text otherwise it cannot render it. There are ways you can make it harder to obtain but in the end a smart or persistent person can get to the source no matter what you do. For example if you use the disable right click trick to make it so people can't view your source all they'd have to do is disable javaScript and they could access it. Another option is to simply look at the temporary internet files to see what source the browser used to render the page. In short there's nothing you can do to keep your HTML/JavaScript/CSS safe from peering eyes. If you want to disable right clickcheck the following link http://rainbow.arch.scriptmania.com/scripts/no_right_click.html

Hi Niradhip Thanks for ur reply I went thru the link but it shows like it is not possible to encrypt or scramble the HTML rendered at the client. But i want to encrypt the HTML of my drop-down rendered on page which shows all the content in the view source encrypted atleast.

Though you could not encrypt the aspx page as such but you can use EncryptHTML and DecryptHTML functions or alternately you can put information in hidden fields so that view source contains encrypted in formation.
