How to disable the firebug with JavaScript?

[Hao Dong]

    I have a web page contains some js code. I don't want others to inspect them. So How I can detect the existence of Firebug and disable it with my JavaScript code？

Sorry, but this simply isn't possible. People don't need Firebug to look at the code of a website. Also for privacy and security reasons we're trying to avoid Firebug being detectable by websites.

What you can do, though, is to minimize your JavaScript code, so it's less readable for people inspecting it.

Having seen some of that "obfuscated" java script, where the script writes code into the document body for later execution, is it possible to see the "final" document / final java script that is actually run?

Sure, if the JavaScript is executed using eval(), it should be listed within the Location Menu inside the Script panel. If it is attached by dynamically creating a <script> tag, you'll even see it within the HTML panel.
