hi there,
so i vaguely remember viewing the source code to some internet sites, which appeared much shorter compared to the lengthy, complex content that was actually displayed... i'd like to know if there's a way to hide the script portion (or all portions) of an internet site from being viewed in a browser's "View Page Source"...
thanks.

No that is not possible, because whatever techniques you use, anyone with some technical knowledge will be able to easily obtain your scripts. For example, you can use:
[HTML]<script src="js/myjsscript.js"> </script>[/HTML] but I can easily download or view that script.
Other techniques to 'hide' javascript involves encoding it and also including a decoder, but that is never foolproof, e.g. see this link.

Doesn't compressing your js make it harder to steal? Or is there a way to decompress it? Is the compression just the encoding that you linked to?

Yes, it does make it harder to steal, but if someone is determined enough, he can discover your algorithm and decode or decompress the code - that's why it's not completely foolproof. Remember you have to include the decode algorithm on the page.
For Javascript compression, you can look at this and Dojo's Shrinksafe (linked on that page).

Sorry, I'm a newbie to php ;)
I was thinking about using php to write the script file, something
like:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://insert_url_here.com/myScript.php"></script>
The php file then echo'ing the source code. If that works then how can
I stop the php file being loaded directly, that is the user browsing

This is the only working way to completely hide your JavaScript code from the client just like PHP or ASP code.
Here we'll need the help of PHP. Here is the code:
