Lot's of ways.
1. Compile it - oh, wait this is php...
2. obsfucate it - there are many tricks to this.

Depends on what you mean by "hide it". Hide it from _what_?
You can't hide it from the web server or you won't be able to display
pages. If the customer has shell access to the server, you _may_ be
able to hide that from them if the file permissions are set correctly.
But if you're trying to "compile" the code in such a way that they can
look at the file but don't know what it's doing, that can only be done
minimally as has been previously discussed.
If you want to make the source code unavailable, switch to a compiled
language like C and write it as a CGI program. Otherwise, there's only
so much you can do to "hide" the source code in php, perl, or python.
You could switch to Java, but portability might be a problem, as well as
scaling to more traffic.

You may want to try RoadSend, the first and so far the only real PHP
compiler. It generates really executable code from PHP scripts, as
opposed to just encoded byte codes which is what PHP encoders do. Not
only it will protect your code irrevesibly but it seems extraordinarily
fast. http://www.roadsend.com/

Here's a FREE solution that I have installed: http://sourceforge.net/projects/turck-mmcache/
I have yet to actually test it yet, but it looks good to me so far.
(I'll know more when I start testing it.)

Don't use an obfuscator - there are several programs available on the
web (BeautifyPHP, and a class or two at phpclasses.org) that can
recover obfuscation.

You can obfuscate the source code.
This makes it typically unreadable by people.
Some claim that if you prettyprint an obfuscated
code, you can read it. Not if the comments
are gone, and the variable names are scrambled.
Then it becomes a hard problem in reverse-engineering.

Hi there,
I don't know much about web design but I proudly managed to password protect
a page on my site. Later I realized that everyone looking at the source in
any web browser can see the password. Is there a way to improve this code so
that instead of the password people viewing the page source would only see
bullets instead of the characters of the password (or hide it alltogether?)
Thank you for your help.

Hi everybody.
I was just wondering how did editors were protecting their source code from decompilers and reverse engeneering.
I heard one method of source code protection was by obfuscation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obfuscated_code
Does every editor use Obfuscation? How does large software editor like Microsoft protect their source code? Do they manage to protect their source code?

Hi,
Using the .NET reflector tool, i know that a DLL or EXE developed in
..NET platform can be decompiled and therefore code is available for all.
I would like to know if exist a way how to avoid tools like .NET
reflector to decompile your code or at least to avoid people to see
clearly the code of you DLL or EXE ?
thanks a lot,
