I agree with Dan, why would you want to conceal HTML? HTML doesn't even have "tricks" like JavaScript that you would even want to hide. It's too cut and dried of a language for there to be anything worth going to all the trouble of hiding. On the other hand, if a person is so hardpressed to hide their code, then they better learn JavaScript in a hurry. (As dumb as this sounds...) They could program their site using JavaScript (with document.write () and stuff like that), save it as a source file and have the HTML document call it up. But then there are compatibility issues and... Too much of a hassle to get the shakes over.
