TIP 4 - SIMPLE ANTI-SPAM
Quite a lot of people seem te
be concerned about spam. Of course, you are! But you can
make it a bit more difficult for the spam-robots to find
your email adress. This is how...
Let's assume this is your email adress:
you@gmail.com
and the text that you use to ask people to write you is
Contact Us
When you enter your email adress on your web page, the code
gets converted into this:
<A
HREF="mailto:you@gmail.com">Contact
Us</A>
It's very to easy to make it difficult for a spam-robot to
find you when you change the underlying html-code a bit by
hiding the @-sign.
<A
HREF="mailto:you@yourdomain.com">Contact
Us</A>
Of course there are smart spam-robots, so you might be
tempted to hide the "mailto:" part as well. Then
this is how it looks:
<A
href="mailto:
you&64;gmail.com">Contact Us</A>
Be careful when you copy the
text: make sure there is nothing
between #58 and you .
So how to use this in GPC? Very simple.
1 - Whereever you want it, write your email text, eg.
"Contact Us".
2 - Highlight this text and click on the link-button.
3 - In the pop-up window check the 4th radio button:
"email adress".
4 - Fill in your email adress normally on the bottom line.
In the top line your "contact
us" should appear already.
5 - Click OK to accept this.
6 - Back in the layout screen click "edit html"
(bottom left of screen).
7 - Search in the html code until you find your email
adress.
8 - Change the code between <A and A> as explained
above.
9 - Click "save changes"
That's all !.
And here's a very long list with all the code
numbers.
