It's almost impossible to successfully hide HTML code; after all, your browser needs it to display the page, and if your browser can get it, you can get it. A lot of tricks use JavaScript to try and prevent people from getting the source, but if they disable JavaScript then they can usually get around it.

Another option is to dispense with HTML entirely and create the content in Flash or something else that's proprietary.

I would advise against doing so. There are some javascript obfuscators around but they are somewhat problematic and can severely hamper search engine results. Really no reason to hide the source anyway. There is nothing in HTML that is really secret anyway.

Right, you can copy text from a web page into something like Visual Stuido, with HTML code and everything.
