Copying code

[hotmale]

Is it unethical to view source and copy the code if I found something nice on a webpage that I'd like to use on my own site?

it depends if the source is copyrighted or not?? If it is a generic piece of code, ie table layout or something no probs... but if it is a custom made flash animation shopping website, then you might have to ask for permission...

you should be able to use it, just put a text line saying you got it from blah.com ;)

Thanks for the advice, man (you are a male, right? 'cause some of the posts have confused me, lately :p )

It's actually some Javascript I found on CNET (news.com) and it consists of some variables, functions and IF statements.
