Has anyone done this or does anyone have a suggestion on how to? I've done a lot of searching and all seem to point towards inidividual encoding via javascript -- I've already got it to where it works for mailto: Â - equals mailto: I'm basically looking for something to force the display of the the script to make @'s @ -- just so the spambots won't pick them up - although complete encoding would be even better as I'm sure spambots have gotten smarter over the years.. Thanks for any input! Lorri Nevil http://www.baaa.org/guestbook/ - has turned out nicely!
