    If it's something that's unique and it's being commercially used (i.e. the code is being specifically used to generate some type of 'software' or a site that generates revenue from the idea itself) and if somebody uses that code without your permission to make money from it (public code or not), I'm almost positive you can make a case for something like that.

    If we're talking about a simple website (HTML/Javascript), it probably has been done many times before in some sort of way or the other. Nothing you can really do 'cept sit back and be flattered.

    But if it's really bugging you 'that' bad, maybe see a copyright lawyer and see what they say. They'll know best.
