Email Address Encoder
Have you noticed that the amount of spam you get every day went up a notch
when you started your web site? The reason is that spambots are busy harvesting
site-based email addresses for spam lists. You can avoid this problem by
posting an email "description" rather than an address - "send email to Susan
@ HerDomain.com", but that's not particularly friendly to your visitors.
A more useful approach is to create a snippet of code that looks and works
like the address you need, but can't be harvested.
The Encoder we present below, authored by Dan Benjamin, is a great answer
to this problem, using numerical equivalents to create a snippet of Javascript
code you can simply cut and paste right into your web page.
