protect source code

alirezaok

i writed a program with php for my customers.

but i fear that my customers disregard copy right and they publish my program to other and make money for their.

i want they can not see my source code and can run it only

i am looking at for a way for secure or compile my source code before i deliver code to my customers.

i found it: http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-encoder.php
but it is very expensive

is other way for do it?

There are other programs that do this. POBS is an obfuscator.
It scrambles your code in a certain manner that makes it VERY hard to edit. It just takes a while to get it configured well for your specific project, but if you don't have the money for Zend encoder (which can be decoded anyway), then go with POBS.

Hope it helps!

In that is the line:

The zend encoder is not expensive if you are a small business.
