Re: Obfuscating E-Mail

simple str_replace() stuff will get the address into a mickey at disney dot com format... but the link needs to be done with javascript, and you have to accept that it will not work for everyone. the phpclasses.org site does this along with 1000's of others, so I'm sure you can find some code. in fact, phpclasses HAS a few classes to do this too!!! search around for one that you like. justin on 05/10/02 3:36 AM, Ashley M.
