I noticed many websites that have their email address in full on the web page and thus easy for a spider to read it and spam. I use this little script. Just change the obvious bits and place it where you want the "Click to email" link. Copy and paste onto the HTML of your web page.

<script language=javascript>
<!--
var ppclink = "Click here to Email ";
var ppcname = "yourname";
var ppchost = "yourISP";
document.write("<a href=" + "mail" + "to:" + ppcname + "@" + ppchost + ">" + ppclink + "</a>")
//-->
</script>


Result as above is :-

"Click here to Email" which gives "<ahref=mailto:yourname@yourISP</a>"

Nice script, but that puts the onus on the visitors email client.
Its better to have a contact page or if you must use just an email address
convert the text to an image(just 1 click) and link the image.

David,

That's true but I hate forms as invariably you have no record of what you've sent and often the form includes must-fill in nonsense! Forcing the use of the client's own email client at least gives him something he knows how to work with and keeps a copy on his computer. A linked image is also OK but again it's harder to create an image than enter a bit of script. Let's say we've given a wider choice.

I totally agree with wider choices, so BV has a quick method of converting Text to an image with one click................and as I originally said....nice script...lol

Nice idea! But i think it was mentioned on this forum somewhere that these type of links wont open in many peoples work places because have there own internal mail servers. So you actually either need the written email address or use a web form that works on the actual site that you are using.

The title is a little misleading. It's more spam resistant, as the script isn't going to prevent all harvesters from getting ahold of the email address. A bad one will just read source, where this won't show up, but if a harvester is reading DOM is will pick this up in plain text.
