Clever Web Tricks (cont.) – how to put a mailto: link to your email address without letting spammers get at it. Visit this page, which converts your email address text into text that browsers will understand but “spiders” which try to capture email addresses will not. My mailto using this technique comes out as “mailto:%64%61%76%69%64%40%64%61%76%69%64%62%72%61%6b%65%2e%6f%72%67” but works as normal: david at davidbrake dot org. If this doesn’t work with your browser or you see another problem with it, please let me know!
