No, you can't hide anything client-side. Even if it's not in the URL, someone could just view the source.

hi ...

on clientside you can't do this ... like acoder said. and as a recommendation: never do auth-things on clientside ... always call a service or whatever you want to call it on the server side ... the client always gets your javascript-code and it may be always locally modified by the user ... so avoid everything that may be security-critical like building sql-queries, pass usernames and passwords etc. ...

try to find an other solution for this ... never, never do it ;) its evil ... and you may wonder what the guys may do with such code ... probably its your mysql-password too or whatever ... don't rely on the fact that most users don't be able to use what they get ;) ... if some could ... you may be send to hell by them ...

of course i'm exaggerating ... but i have to mention it ... and bring it to your attention ...

kind regards ...
