Re: PHP Code I Must find

Seen that in the manual. I'll need a routine of some sort I guess. I'll get my cookie cutters out tomorrow and see what I can create. I make cool gingerbread men, for a dude. **htmlentities() does most of what I want, sort of. **lists-php wrote:

you might try looking at the php manual. start with: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ord.php and go from there.

that's not UTF, rather just the html representation of the ascii

codes for the characters. [someone else has already pointed you to an ascii table.] when put in the context of the "mailto:" it's actually fairly easy for a bot to identify and decode (i'm not saying that they do, but it's not hard). if you're going to use this approach you may want to make the e-mail addresses user-readable, but unlinked. while still easily decoded, most bots won't waste time trying to decode every string like that that they encounter (at least not yet). - Rick ------------ Original Message ------------

From: John Taylor-Johnston <jt.johnston@USherbrooke.ca> To: PHP-General <php-general@lists.php.net> Subject: [PHP] PHP Code I Must find A web site deploys what I think are UTF characters to mask email addresses. Is there there a php function I can use to generate this? Or was this hand-done? It is crackable, but a darned good stab at the problem of spiders at the same.
