If I'm reading this right he took messy javascript someone wrote, and ported it to a php library... If he didn't give original credit to the OP, then yeah thats rude, but don't we all end up porting old code at sometime or another?
- almost 16y agoHe took (possibly messy, although that doesn't have much to do with it) JavaScript code which he didn't own and had no rights to without asking and made changes to it. No PHP here.
- thecircusb0y 16y agoOkay.. but Javascript is free to view through the client machine no matter what. It brings up that question "if its easy to cheat, will people do it?" and the answer is, usually yes. Sure theft really sucks, but was there a way to prevent this other then trusting someone not to steal?
- almost 16y agoI'm not sure what your point is.
- thecircusb0y 16y agoIn other words I'm not sure why we should be surprised and caring that someone stole javascript.
- almost 16y agoFor the same reason I'd care if someone stole any other piece of work.
- thecircusb0y 16y agoWell is there a way to hide your javascript, or compile it to hinder the ability to steal it so easily? I'd like to know cause as far as I knew you had to be extra careful on what you do with javascript to protect the security of your site. I always have my controllers verifying my input from javascript/ajax, cause I know my js is easily viewable.
