I was wondering if there was a way to block emails that are displayed in a
web site from being scanned by spiders/bots?

Use JavaScript to construct the mailto: link.

Take a look at Spam Spoiler addin at
http://www.jimcosoftware.com/addins.aspx

If the email addresses are in forms (FrontPage webbot, or hidden fields)
then there is nothing you can do, except change the server side form
handler.

Hi Mark

I'm not an FP expert but this one method we used a while ago (I copied some
code from somewhere - sorry to the person who wrote it I have forgoten where
I got it from) and changed it a little to make it do what we needed.


var AandB = "yourEmail";
var CandD = "name";
var EandF = ".";
var GandH = "co";
var IandJ = ".";
var KandL = "uk";
var linktext1 = "Se";
var linktext2 = "nd";
var linktext3 = " e ";
var linktext4 = "M";
var linktext5 = "a";
var linktext6 = "i";
var linktext7 = "l";
var subj = "Message from ... / ... INSERT SOME TEXT HERE"
var bod = "Please do NOT alter or remove the subject line. We have included
this code avoid malicious e mails and advertisements. This line can be
removed if you wish."
document.write("<a href=" + "mai" + "lto:" + AandB + "@" + CandD + EandF +
GandH + IandJ + KandL + '?subject=' + escape(subj)+ '&body=' + escape(bod)
+">"
+ linktext1 + linktext2 + linktext3 + linktext4 + linktext5 + linktext6 +
linktext7 + "</a>")

Insert this (use the split facility in FP) where you want the e mail addess
to display to a user. - Note you can't see it until it's published to the web.

We have also used outlook to block any e mails (they get a returned unread
message from the server) that do not have the right subject line like the
INSERT SOME TEXT HERE

Our spams have gone down from over 400 per day to nil

I have no doubt that some little **** will crack it one day, in this case we
will simply have change the INSERT SOME TEXT HERE line and reset the outllok
rules.

dead easy

Good luck
