   This topic is covered in the section titled "1. Return email
addresses through JavaScript" in the following article:

   "Protecting your website's email addresses from being used by spammers"
   Berkeley Computing and Communications, Winter 2003
   http://istpub.berkeley.edu:4201/bcc/Winter2003/feat.spamharvest.html

   See both the simple code sample in the article itself, which you
can customize for your needs, and the links under the "Resources"
subhead at the end of the above section.
