Protect HTML source in command line mode - HTML Guardian
command line reference
File List Manager is intended to replace the command line usage of HTML
Guardian. However the full command line support is still available and
you can use this feature to control HTML Guardian from other applications
like your own C, C++, VisualBasic etc. applications and automatically
protect html
/ script / asp / php/ css etc. source code, protect
images and perform many other encryption tasks the same way
you can do this using the graphical user interface.
HTML Guardian command line syntax has the following
structure :
htmlg.exe inputfile, outputfile,
[switch1], [switch2]...... Note that the comma (
, ) character is used to separate the options.
htmlg.exe - required. The name of
the main HTML Guardian executable. If you call htmlg.exe from another
folder(not from the folder where it resides), you should use the full
path to it like C:\Program Files\HTML Guardian\htmlg.exe
To be able to call htmlg.exe from within any folder without providing
the full path to it, you may simply add the program's installation
folder to the PATH environment variable (check the OS help files for instructions how to do this).
inputfile - required
parameter. The full path to the file you want to encrypt, like C:\TestSite\default.htm
outputfile - required
parameter. The path for saving the encrypted inputfile, including the
filename, like C:\TestSite\Encrypted\default.htm
Inputfile and outputfile parameters should be absolute paths.
You can not use relative paths , even if the files which source is
to be encrypted reside in the same folder where htmlg.exe file resides.
Important: outputfile parameter must
be a valid path, it should point to an already existing folder.
In the above example, the folder C:\TestSite\Encrypted\ must exist.
If the outputfile parameter is invalid (that is, the folder specified
for saving the encrypted file does not exist), the file will not be
encrypted, it will be skipped.
If inputfile and outputfile parameters are the same, HTML Guardian
will overwrite the original file with the encrypted file without prompting
you. Please be careful, and always make backup copies of your files
before you protect html and other files in command line mode!
All the switches described below are optional. If omitted, the [default..]
setting will be used:
IE5 - use alternative
encryption method(for IE 5+ only). If omitted, the default method(for
all browsers) will be used to protect files.
R - disable right
click [default:false - disable right click security option will not
be applied]
L - don't show
links in status bar [default:false]
T - disable text
selection [default:false - disable text copy protection will not be
applied]
O - prohibit offline
use [default:false (only for asp encryption, the default value
is true)]
N - disable page
printing [default:false]
C - disable clipboard & print
screen (this option will only work for IE 5+ browsers, default: false)
M - encrypt Meta tags.
P@password@redirection - set the
password for the page and a redirection URL in case of incorrect password.
password - the password that the
visitor must enter to see the page.
possible values for the redirection part are:
blank - will display a blank page.
back - will turn the visitor back
to the previous page visited.
any valid URL, like http://www.protware.com
- will redirect the visitor to this url in case of incorrect password.
F@referrer@redirection - set the
scope of URL's allowed to link this page, and a redirection URL in case
the page is linked from another place.
referrer - a string that identifies
the sites allowed to link this page. Normally that would be your domain
name, like protware or protware.com - in this case the protected file
can be linked only from within your domain. You may also include a
filename here, like http://www.protware.com/features.html, or just
protware.com/features.html - in this case, the protected file can
be linked from the specified file only.
possible values for the redirection part are:
blank - will display a blank page.
any valid URL, like http://www.protware.com
- will redirect the visitor to this url in case of incorrect password.
An example of a .bat file:
htmlg.exe C:\siteTest\index.htm, C:\siteTest\Encrypted\index.htm, R,
L, O, P@999@back
htmlg.exe C:\Site1\test1.htm, C:\Site1\test1.htm, IE5, R, T, F@protware.com@blank
Copy the lines above, paste them in a text editor such as Notepad, and
save the file in HTML Guardian's installation folder with a .bat extension,
like my_list.bat. Then just double click this file to start file
encryption.
Some of the settings are not available in command line mode, for example
you can't change the encryption method for 'All' browsers - all files
will be encrypted using the encryption method currently set as default.
Also, the 'Encrypt meta tags' and 'Scramble non-ASCII characters' protection
options are not available when you protect
html from the command line.
