how to encrypt php source file?

[matt1]

You could md5 (or other mechanism) your source file, and have a main php program that would "de-md5" a page as needed.

$page could be a parameter in the url

<?php
$page = fread (... my encrypted php page ..)
then "de-md5" $page
and eval($page)
?>

Well, you can certainly use the zend encoder, unfortunately it costs about $2800...

We're about to start building one, but I think it will not be ready for a month or so. The cost we are planning on will be around $199 which I think is a much more reasonable figure

All the best to everyone

Thanks for this. It looks quite interesting. I still think I'll go and create this encryption app anyway as it will be useful for us

THanks

Hi Adrian,

I didn't mean at all to convey you to do otherwise :-) Please do so. And when you're done, would you post it in here please? I would be interested in your solution as well.

Thank you,

I have visited http://pobs.mywalhalla.net/ .
And I have used the tool it provides,but there a lots of bugs in the page called pobs.php.
But it just do me a help ,it just tell me the way how to do that!
Firstly,clean the comments in your code.
Secondly,clean indents,returns
so you can make your code unreadable!
But it doesn't work when I want to replace my function's name in a way .But unfortunately it haven't come true yet!

guys,

encryption is good, but you should concentrate on what happens when the file is decrypted. If your file is interesting, then some hacker will want to decrypt it. Think about what will happen when it is decrypted, this is more important than encrypting your file!

When I want to hide something from someone, the first thing I concentrate on is "what will happen if someone finds it?" then go from there. Do not rely on encryption for safety, that's my message.
