You should be able to hide the entire contents of the javascript code by
referencing a file, rather than embedding the script code in the html that
they DL. The java script still gets DL'd (of course), and executed
locally, but should they choose to look at the html source, all they see
is a tag referencing a file. I don't recall the details (I've never
worked in javascript), but I do know you can do it.

Simple doesn't mean bad, or unworthy of attention. Elegance in simplicity
is always a driving factor in my code designs... I'd like to think I
achieve it every once in a while.
