I have taken into designing websites for some people. Not only is it fun but its helping my skills along.
Now I came into a problem. I can put some writing in there saying the site was designed by me, even use javascript to do it, but people can just remove it.
Is there any code you can give me or help me to write that would show I created the site, and if its removed would prevent the site from working etc.
Any help is appreciated.
Jump to PostNo, IMO no such thing exists, at least not in terms of code. No matter how hard you try, anyone can copy your layout, design, Javascript etc. of your site and use them. Maybe some other legal alternatives?
Jump to PostYou could do this using PHP where a part of the site is generated with PHP that is hosted by you on your server... and also prints your signature block with that part of the site.
In essence you would have to have control of part of the site …

It may not be possible to make code that can not be taken out, but it is easy to make it more difficult to do this, by nesting javascript functions, for example, or using minimized code or both.
You could also display this information with an image, that also serves as an integral part of the design. It could still be taken out easily with Photoshop, but this gives one more barrier that might prevent it from happening. Especially if the text is over a pattern or image, but make sure if you do that it is still highly legible.
A third, more remote option is using Flash.
Hope this helps.

In essence you would have to have control of part of the site files that your clients cannot get at.
But talking purely javascript, I agree, nothing is beyond hijacking when it's on the web ... even my PHP approach could be circumvented by making a copy of the viewed-source and inserting that into new html files...
So to answer you question again -- no
But if you're making these sites for people, it is safe to assume that most of them will not have the knowledge to remake the site without your signature, or they would likely have made the site instead of having you do it.
