If you mean Javascript that is in your HTML code, it is both practically and
theoretically impossible to do so. HTML source is wide-open to anyone who
wants to look at it, and there is little/nothing you can "really" do about
it. Some sites try and hide their HTML source, but it servers only to annoy
the crap out of users. If I right-click a page and don't get the right-click
menu I expect, I tend to become highly irritated.
JavaScript is a "scripting language", which was designed for the exact
purpose of being easily read by humans.
Now, if you are speaking of a JavaApplet or client-side java bean, that's a
little different. But in reality you can't really stop people from
downloading those to their hard-drive either.
There are methods to keep people from easily decompiling them, but I'm
betting you aren't talking about Java stuff anyway :)
