Default Re: combat spam

Use this code to post your email address on your web site to stop spambots from harvesting your email address and allow real people to send you email:

<script type="text/javascript" language="">
user ="joeblow"
domain ="yahoo.com"
subCon = "Email question"
document.write('<a href="mailto:' + user + '@' + domain +'?subject=' +subCon+' " ' +' >' + user + '@' + domain +'</a>');
</script>

This will allow the person to send an email to joeblow@yahoo.com

Replace the email address above with your own and try it out. They can click on the link or cut and paste as normal. For a spambot, they will skip right past it. Try software such as Email Extractor Pro and you'll see that it will pass with flying colors. This has DRASTICALLY reduced spam for many of my clients.

Another example:

<script language=javascript>
<!--
var x1 = "johndoe";
var x2 = "hogvalley.com";
document.write("<a href=" + "ma" + "ilto:" + x1 + "@" + x2 + ">Email Webmaster for info</a>")
//-->
</script>
