| Would you like to put your email address on your web page WITHOUT the risk of getting spammed by every spam-bot trolling the web? Then try one of these 3 handy techniques: |
| #1 - Use a Non-Clickable Image of Your Email Address Make an image (such as a GIF or JPG image) of your email address and post it in your web page. However, do NOT make a mailto hyper-link that will pop open a pre-addressed email window. Just post the image, such as: ![]() But, this method has three (3) minor problems or drawbacks: The 1st is that people must open their own blank email window. The 2nd is they must type your address into their blank email window. The 3rd is they can not "copy-n-paste" your address into their blank email. | ||
| #2 - Use a Clickable JavaScript for Your Email Address You will need two scripts. The first breaks down your email address into three coded parts [ who @ url ] and defines how it will be printed. It can be placed anywhere on the page, but I put it in the head. Copy the script below. Then just change Jim to the name that you want to appear before @ and then change Smith.Com to the domain name that you want to appear after @.
Then copy the following script and place it exactly where you want your email address to appear in your web page.
Unfortunately, this method has a minor problem or drawback - the person reading your web page must have a Java-enabled web browser to see your email address. If Java is disabled, they they cannot see your email address. | ||
| #3 - Use a Perl or CGI Script to Submit a Form Response A great way to let visitors contact you, but prevents SpamBots from finding and recording your email address. WARNING Many of the older Perl and CGI scripts that are available on the internet are very vulnerable to hackers. If you use a Response Form at your site, how secure is your form mail script? Can a Spam Mailer hack into your script and then send spam (junk mail) from your site? It happens all the time! |
