Hi sorry here it is:

<!-- No [view source] tab for anonymous users --> <?php global $wgUser; if( $wgUser->isAnon() ) { ?> <style> #ca-viewsource { display: none !important; } </style> <?php } ?> But nothing happens. I can still see the [view source] tab even when im an anonymous user. On Thu, Mar 25, 2010 at 11:54 AM, Huib Laurens sterkebak@gmail.com wrote:

#ca-viewsource { display: none !important; }

You should only add this line and remove all the others.

Common.css is a stylesheet; it's parsed as CSS; and only CSS. Quite rightly so, because allowing users to invoke arbitrary PHP code from a wiki page would be... problematic... (understatement of the day).

You need to implement this with pure CSS and/or JS.

Modifing commons.js should do it. I don't know JavaScript or I would give you the exact code

Regardless of whether you succeed in hiding the 'view source' tab, how will you counter URL manipulation by the user?

AFAIK anyone can change the URL to

...index.php?title=Pagename&action=edit

and then get presented with the 'view source' results (or the edit window for that matter if the user/anon has edit rights).

Or are you only concerned in the aestethics of the page rendering?

The [view source] tab appears only when you don't have permission to edit it, so going to the direct url won't allow you to modify it.
