:Loadstring has a second argument, which chooses the chunk's name. If you leave it as default, it will be the source of the code, which we certainly don't want. <div style="border-top:1px dashed;padding-bottom:.5em;height:1em"><div style="font-size:75%;float:left">[[User:JulienDethurens|JulienDethurens]]</div><div style="font-size:75%;float:right">7 February 2012</div></div>

Not actual obfuscation

I just thought that I would let you know that from my perspective, obfuscation is not making machine code, but rather making code to be interpreted, but just harder to understand. Like jQuery, but in the minified form. I may be severely off, btw.

Obfuscation simply describes the act of making code hard to read. Normally, this consists of changing variable names (like jquery.min.js). However, this isn't exclusive.

Okay.

There's a reason I put "" as the second argument sent to loadstring. It's because it needs to be there. It's the chunk's name.

Not sure I know exactly what you mean. Why does my method of skipping the loadstring step altogether not work?

Loadstring has a second argument, which chooses the chunk's name. If you leave it as default, it will be the source of the code, which we certainly don't want.
