Methods such as this do nothing to stop a person who has a desire to steal
your html.
A trivial proxy will allow a programmer to save all your html no matter
what little inconveniences you put in the way.
The typical result of things like the above is simply to inconvenience
regular people when something unexpected happens, such as (in this
example) a slow connection perhaps.
Some people have suggested JavaScript to hide urls. Again, they can
inconvenience a regular user (e.g. preventing them from bookmarking some
pages) but do nothing to a programmer who decides to "rip" your site.
