93 Javascript Not Working

I’m also having a hard time with Javascript not kicking in. I’m not using a Drupal site either! I’ve tinkered for over an hour and still have no idea why it won’t kick. Even the simplest test page (no additional scripts) does not work.

I also get a message in Firebug that the geo.js has an error: missing ; before statement
[Break on this error] var tooltip_js_off = ‘To reveal this e-mail address, you’ll need to answer a si…

Nice idea. I love the idea…

Why, the article is great and pretty helpful! I used to get a lot of spam for my e-mail address being quite public… But I resolved my problem in much easier way – just signed up with Gafana, I don’t get spam any more. that’s it, guys.

95 SpamSpam and Drupal

The solution described in the article is great however I think it is too much of an effort to implement. What I don’t want is to waist more time on spam scumbags then necessary.

Spamspan [1] is a nice simple pretty clean Solution using js+css, degreading without js turned on nice and beeing easy to customize it is the solution of my choice. Especially because there ist a drupal [2] module [3] for it.

96 Does the processing slow page load?

This seems to be an attractive technique, but I have concerns about any added pre-processing and post-processing time. If each file has to run through this filter before it is served, and then processed by another javascript function, does this noticeably affect the page load time?

Roel,
why don’t you use your technique on your own sites, like Anysurfer.be? Is it not that accessible after all?

98 My method...

My method of displaying email addresses is simple enough that it doesn’t require heavy scripting nor massive legwork on the user’s part.

“If you would like to get in contact with me, you may email gibson at the domain this site currently resides.”
(I haven’t really put much time into this short line. I just wanted to get the point across.)

I feel that displaying an email in a more cunning fashion, such as this, can accomplish a number of goals when trying to filter email.

1. The amount of spam is greatly reduced, of course. As far as I know, no currently effective bots can grab an email address from this text.
2. The amount of “superfluous” messages are greatly reduce. I feel that all other messages can go to the comments box if a user is too lazy to manually type in an email address if they would like to speak with me. (Please tell me if I’m biased or just plain wrong.)

1. Completely cross-browser compatible. No scripting == less browser-incompatibilities.

This method has proven to be quite useful and has eliminated 100% of spam messages (not to mention the number unneeded ones).

99 Simple Obfuscator

Excellent article. Unfortunately I have to work with an undocumented proprietary content management system written in ASP. I have come up with a simple email obfuscator based on numeric character references, JavaScript and CSS. Take a look at my blog post at www.pixelwisedesign.com/blog/?p=40 if you are in a similar situation and cannot utilize a server side language.

100 Wordpress plugin

For those of you wanting to use this with Wordpress, amazingly there did not seem to be any implementations of quite this method as of a week ago. I knocked a rudimentary version up on Wordpress.org plugins which should do the job. Contact me if anyone is interested in improvements, which I would be happy to bang in if you want to use it on a bigger site.

I have made some slight changes to the method to hook into WP’s processing, avoiding Apache dependency, and tweaked the encoding method a little.

For details and links to any future plans, I will update the post on my site if I come back to this.
