The problem: Spam… A recent study concluded that 97% of spam (aka. UCE) is the direct result of posting email addresses to Web pages.
The solution: Obfuscate… Currently, spambots are not capable of reading email addresses that are translated from ASCII to their UNICODE equivalents, but Web browsers are able to dispaly and handle encoded addresses just fine.
How to use this script: Like so… Enter your email in the lefthand box. Click the button. Paste the resulting code from the righthand box into your Web pages wherever you would normally put your email address.
Example:
this…
<a href="mailto:andrew@hedges.name">
becomes this…
<a href="mailto:andrew@hedges.name">
