Hi all,

In my search for solutions to cut down spam, I have come across the
following code:


<script language=javascript> <!-- var username = "username"; var hostname "yourdomain.com"; var linktext = username + "@" + hostname;
document.write("<a href=" + "mail" + "tox" + username + "@" + hostname + ">"
+ linktext + "</a>") //--> </script>

However, I'm not versed in Javascript yet, which probably explains why I
can't get this to work -- anyway, is this an accessible solution? I thought
scripts were generally a no-no.

Always something to learn.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Glenda
