Hi guyz, i search for a while just to know if there is a way to encrypt the PHP code, i mean instead of PHP script there should be strange symbols like >!/?@ just another way to (protect it)and not let others see your script.

thanx

There are several ways to encrypt PHP, but almost all can be decrypted easily. The only way is using software like Zend Encoder, but the user would need to have installed in this case on his server the Zend Optimizer or he wouldn't be able to execute the code. Other softwares instead have no this problem, but they gives you particular library files (one for each PHP version, and there are a lot), big several megs EACHONE. This means your code, to be executable by almost everyone should be large more that 50megs and this is obviously ridi****us... so there is no an universal way to encrypt PHP code in a secure way without having big problems.
