Re: HTML/Java Protection

If you are really concerned, you're better designing your Applet to
call code on the Server, or see if you can use a standard JSP/Servlet
solution. That will allow you keep your security related code private,
while leaving a publically accessible interface.
As others have stated, obfuscation can be circumvented; therefore
leave a minimal amount of security related code on your applet.
