If I wanted to hide some html code, mainly form stuff from people viewing it in the source code like this:

<form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_GB/i/btn/x-click-but22.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
<input type="hidden" name="add" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_cart">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="[email protected]">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Item 1">
<input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="#001">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="1.50">
<input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="GBP">
<input type="hidden" name="lc" value="GB">
<input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-ShopCartBF">
</form>

How would I go about it? It's button code generated by paypal to use their shopping basket. I just don't like the idea of someone viewing the source code, saving it to their computer, editing the price, saving it and opening it on their desktop and completing a transaction with a lower price. I'm not concerned about proper hackers who would have a field day adding stupid orders, the main market for this website is far from it. Is there something simple I could add to the html just to hide the above code? Cheers for any help guys :)
 
cheers guys for the replies :)

Thats quite a handy link, I'll give it a whirl and see how it goes.

Edit: Nevermind, I've just had a friend explain it to me. :)
