Avoiding Spam
Tr, I looked through your code from daveandnic but i couldn't pick out what you had showed our class earlier. How do you set up that little set of code that helps prevent spammers from acquiring your e-mail through your website?

You could probably do it by doing something like combining sets of strings maybe? I mean I've never done it before but I would imagine that if you made like 3 sets of strings and combined them that most spam robots would miss them, but I could be wrong on this.

Also, I would strongly suggest not using something like jordan@yourdomain.com, or any common name. From what I've heard, spammers just guess, they go to a domain and start guessing names, so at least stick some numbers in it or come up with something unique.

you want to go to http://www.daveandnic.com/contact.asp and look at the source. search for
"
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
var name
"
and copy everything from there to
"
// --></script>
"
then change the value of name to be your email account name and change the value of domain to your email domain (such as daveandnic.com)

you can also find it at the bottom on all the pages on www.daveandnic.com. search for "website comments" and grab everything from script to /script. then do the same changes as before. in this example, you will also want to change the text "website comments" to whatever you want the link to say. do not type your email address here. . .or else you have defeated the point of using this script. if you want it to display your email address, use one of the examples from the contact page.
