E-mail -- Hiding addresses from spammer bots
I'm trying to assist the web master of a site for a computer club of which I'm a member. We have a great many e-mail addresses listed (forwarding types). As you might expect the spammer bots have picked up some. On your web site I noticed that you have a scheme in place to thwart the bots. Could you point me to a resource where we could get some how-to info. Thanks.

The trick is to hide E-mail addresses behind a form submit. That is, the user must press the submit button on a form in order to view an E-mail address.

This trick works because web spiders follow links but do not submit forms.
