I know this is probably a very obvious question and a noob for asking, but I just want to know?

 

If you are creating a big commercial shopping website, should you squash the source code of your pages together so it makes it harder to read by the public. I have noticed that on websites like eBay or Amazon there source code is squashed together and really complicated.

typically, you "minimize" your code so that it uses less memory, and is thus quicker to respond. The aspect that you bring up might be a secondary reason for minimizing code, although if someone with skill in coding want to find something from your code, they could regardless if it was minimized or not.
