Use the following code to protect your HTML files from prying eyes. Instead of embedding your HTML files into Notes documents, create a form in Notes with a name (text) field and a body (rich text field). Put the name of the HTML file in the name field and paste the HTML code into the body field. If you have to make changes all you have to do is edit the Notes document. Create a view called HTML and have the first column sorted by name.
A call to a Web page would be something like:
http://127.0.0.1/html.nsf/gethtml?openagent&index
This agent must be a shared agent that runs once.
