If I wanted to harvest only legitimate email addresses perhaps I'd make
a website where people could submit them. ;-)
I saw what was probably the same study so made a little pascal program
that takes a comma-delimited text file and generates a javascript file
with a case statement for each name/address provided by the text file,
using nested arrays to avoid having anything a bot is likely to read.
The javascript file can be linked to from the head of each web page and
email links placed with a call such as ...
<script language="javascript">johnDoe('IanStephen','Ian
Stephen')</script>
Which would give a link displaying "Ian Stephen". The visible text of
the link can be the email address (default, just omit the second
parameter) or a string you pass.
Much easier to use for more than one or two instances than the
eye-straining output from that on-line tool.
Now off to dissect that example you sent and figure out just how it
works!
