Reduce spam and junk email by using JavaScript to hide your address from spam-bots

Spam-lists are generated by spam-crawlers and spam-bots. These computers only purpose is to constantly comb the web in search of email addresses to add to their lists. Thankfully they are in such a rush to keep up with the massive amount of web content that they ignore everything but the plain text of each site. Executing JavaScripts would be a waste of processor cycles, but that efficiency will help to protect our email.

There are numerous ways of doing this in Javascript, however the idea is the same. It allows you to break the email into parts, where it can't be easily parsed from the source. This email method is only visible on screen as it renders on browsers which supports Javascript, or those have turned Javascript execution on. Keep in mind that, Javascript is not available to many user-agents (since this script completely relies upon JavaScript, users without JavaScript or those who've disabled it will not see anything).

Here is the code you should install on your website (all you have to do is changing the values and put your own) :

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
	var string1 = "name";
	var string2 = "@";
	var string3 = "e-mail.biz";
	var string4 = string1 + string2 + string3;
	document.write("<a href=" + "mail" + "to:" + string1 +
		string2 + string3 + ">" + string4 + "</a>");
//-->
</script>

We will update this article from time to time to reflect anything else we might can come up with. Thank you.
