    Advise your client that once content is served up on the browser, there is no way to protect it. Once it’s on the client, it’s completely vulnerable. All the suggested prevention measures are silly and futile. Even if you wrap it in a .swf and obfuscate the ActionScript, anybody who wants it can get it.

    The answer is to stop and guide your client not bend at their ignorant will.

    No offense.
