Abstract: A method and a filter element for preventing scraping/clipping of the information content of a database used for providing a website with data information. When a data record set from the database has been received, the filter splits all elements/fields of the data record set in a predetermined way into cells and a sortid is provided. Each cell is encoded into a markup language, wherein location information in the cell is used for generating a location value. The encoded cells are sorted into a file to establish a file, e.g. web page, wherein the encoded data cells are distributed in an arbitrary order.
