Protect Against Spam Crawlers

How to protect your e-mail address:

This tutorial will show you how to protect your e-mail address against Spam Crawlers.
So, how do you protect your e-mail? Easy, it can be done with simple JavaScript - no need to use complicated Images or REMOVE text in e-mail links.

Let's take a basic example of an e-mail link to me@somewhere.com

<A HREF="mailto:me@somewhere.com" ALT="Mail Me!">me@somewhere.com</A>

Now this will not work, a Spam Crawler could pick up this e-mail easily. So how would you protect the example above? Like this:

-------------------- Revised Version ----------------------

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- hide me
function mailme()
{
window.location = "m" + "a" + "i" + "l" + "t" + "o" + ":" + "me"+ "@" + "somewhere" + "." + "c" + "o" + "m";
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

<A HREF="javascript:void(1)" ALT="Mail Me!" onClick="mailme()" >Mail me</A>

Or you could make the email address a picture. Simpler, right?

Or that other way people like doing it, adding NO SPAM inside like:

randomNOemailSPAM@mail.com

and please remove the NO and SPAM.

Actually that's what I use if I'm in a hurry but don't you think crawlers would have become smart enough to remove capital letters from email addresses?

If you are not the author are you sure it was legal to post it here?
