Doing it with style
Doing it with style
Please note. I get a few hundred emails a week from visitors asking for help, or posing questions on how to modify my demos to suit their application and I read them all. Unfortunately I only have a limited amount of time to spend answering these questions.
So if I do not reply, please do not be offended, and if I do reply then you are one of the lucky ones.
If you are asking for permission to use any of my demonstration then please email me with your request stu{at}cssplay.co.uk.
Mathias Bynens:-
After you came up with this ultra-cool email address obfuscation method through CSS, I quickly wrote the obfuscate_email() PHP function. And now, I uploaded my very own email obfuscator that converts the email into ASCII and optionally reverses it through CSS. It can output (X)HTML links and/or just the encoded email address.

Your technique for hiding e-mail addresses DOES work in the current version of Opera (8.01).

Howard, that's why I now say 'didn't' work in Opera ;o)

Another pure CSS method - https://mardeg.sitesled.com
This generates a logo of the email using random text, then miniaturises it to resemble normal text. Note that Opera only displays the minilogo correctly when Tools -> Preferences, Advanced tab has Minimum Font size (pixels) set to 1

in opera 8.5 its working.
an other solution can be to work with css
":after" .de:after { content:".de" }
<span class="de">test@domain</span>
but this is not working in ie
im not sure about safari

Why not use something like:
<span class="email">XXXXX</span>
And then, in the CSS :
span.email:after {
/*\40 = @ in CSS*/
content: "\40.XXXXX";
}
However, as metioned, it doesn't work in IE. But what if we would use a conditional comment for IE and use this method for IE?

I referenced this technique in the article Obscuring Your Email From Spammers, found here:

Thank you for your useful site.

Because it isn't a link, I copy it to my clipboard. When I paste in in my Gmail, I get:
ku.oc.u7s@uts
So, it's still not really usefull, just funny:-)
