April 15, 201016 yr Are you able to protect your css file so it can't be access/open/copied by others? If so, can someone tell me how. Thanks.
April 15, 201016 yr I'm not sure why you would want to hide a CSS file. It only has standard coding. It will have image urls but once the images appear on the screen someone can save with print screen (protecting images is a long and debatable subject, there are some ways to make it difficult like splitting an image into hundreds of bits, but an expert could still reform the image).

Sorry, I think I probably confused you a little bit. I wasn't trying to protect the images on a particular site. But I want to know is, if you can protect your actual css code which is located in the style.css folder and which can be viewed and maybe copied when someone visited that css page (example.com/style/style.css). You don't really want people to copy your long hours spent coding the css. But just wondering if this is at all possible.
April 15, 201016 yr Most web designers wouldn't bother to look at your css file unless you needed help as fellow professionals are doing their own css coding. Also many designers display their code in a set manner with the way it is within the file. Myself I always comment areas so I know where everything is, with the body at the top, then container, body divs, etc.
