Dear Webmaster, first of all, congratulation for the attractive design and perfect functionality of php.net web site. I'm an Italian PHP-enthusiast since two years and I dropped by your search page search.php: I was really astonished by the auto completion feature of the menu. What stroked me more is not the Javascript, which I can some what figure-out, but the strange encoding technique of the JS-file itself!! I accessed the CVS and download the Javascript code, but I can't nevetheless understand which utility you used for encoding this way a JS code portion. I have to specify I love open source projects (I'm using ONLY PHP, not ASP, right? :-) ) and so I know it make little sense to hide JS code: but the only reason which I'm looking an JS encrypter for is that of providing some kind of customers a demo of my javascript works!! ;-) So I kindly ask you if you can provide me some information on this technique (one web link on it will be great!), so that I can figure out how it works. I know I'm wasting your time which must be devoted to mantain the web site of the most wonderful scripting language ever devised and not to assist medium-level programmer like me, but I nevertheless hope you will answer me! Waiting for a kind reply of yours, I remain with Best regards. Andrea Ambrosio
