I like to study other people's work for the educational value. Until now I have done this under the limitations of "view source." (I also use WebBuddy to grab sites for off-line study with HomeSite.)

Well I tried the CodeLifter demo, just purchased a copy and really like it.

I make this post to share my enthusiasm and to bring the SW to the attention of other low-level types.

However I will add that I have not used CodeLifter enough to actually make a recommendation but the $20- program sure has promise.

Hi jh,
I would be interested in any other software you run across that might be useful. I am not into reverse-engineering or any form of software modification but long ago discovered that some of the most cutting-edge technology is not on the book selves.

Yeah true, but why would I waste my time to write a program if I can simply disable javascript and view the source, or click the menu View->Source?

Coz its easier to use the program? :)

Seriously.. think of it.. the trouble is just at the begining when you are writing the program. But once its ready, it makes life much easier :)

will it work with dynamic content such as php?

No it wont razor. Php is server side language, meaning, it gets executed before it reaches the cleint's computer. On the other Java Script, is a cleint side langauge. It gets executed on the cleints computer.

There is no way of getting the code from a server side executing file.

Kunal,
Does codelifter get you the code even if the script is in a external .js file?

Never tried that. But I dun think it will work. Because all this does is, get the source of the page, and filter out everything but the stuff between the <Java Script> Tags.

For those of you with PHP4:

<?php
$url="www.webhostingtalk.com";
$page="showthread.php?threadid=4579";
print "<html><body><pre>";
$fp=fsockopen ($url, 80);
fputs ($fp, "GET /$page HTTP/1.1\r\n");
fputs ($fp, "Host: $url\r\n");
fputs ($fp, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n");
print htmlentities(fread($fp, 100000));
print "</pre></body></html>";
?>

Put that in an empty text file, name it whatever.php, and upload it to your server. You can change the values for $url and $page to whatever you want ($page can be empty if you want the default page). This will even show you the HTTP headers, so you can see what kind of server the site is using. :D
