Stop Data Mining My Website

Here is a script I intend on using on my site so that my E-mail address can't be found by data mining.

First of all, will this script hide my address from a data mining bot?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
//START SCRIPT
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
// POP UP A PREFORMATTED EMAIL MESSAGE WINDOW
function popupMessage() {
// SET MESSAGE VALUES
var to = "someone@someworld.com";
var cc = "";
var subject = "Someworld Mail Submit---(your subject here please)";
var body = "";

// BUILD MAIL MESSAGE COMPONENTS
var doc = "mailto:" + to +
"?cc=" + cc +
"&bcc=" + bcc +
"&subject=" + escape(subject) +
"&body=" + escape(body);

// POP UP EMAIL MESSAGE WINDOW
window.location = doc;
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>
<FORM>
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="Test" Value="E-Mail Beemer" onClick="popupMessage()">
</FORM>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Second question:
How would I change the script to use a graphic of my choosing in place of the colourless white button this script creates?

Cheers!

<INPUT type="image" name="Test" value="image/location.jpg" onClick="popupMessage()">

Should work for the image side.

Not sure if it will hide your e-mail or not, but this looks a lot like a friend's script that does the same thing, so I believe it will. Some of the newer mining bots can see through this stuff, I've heard.

Hey Whir,
Thanks. I'll give it a try. If it gives even some of the low lifes trouble, I'm happy.

Spam Doesn't Pay!

Cheers!

You might use an encrypted email link ...... i posted stuff here: http://www.techimo.com/forum/showthr...&postid=800379

Maybe that would be easier..... there are many encryption options...... some double encrypted, readable by browsers but spam bots choke on the code.

It looked promising but it didn't work.

Is there anything else I could try?

Cheers!
