Is it possible to hide email addresses from spam harvesters in HTML pages? The email address should remain clickable and readable for humans...

I heard that using javascript to print the email address sometimes helps. something like
document.write('email@domain.com')
since most harvesters don't process javascript.
Look at this page:

I'm always using it to encode my email addresses.

I use a little javascript I found at dynamicdrive.com... It's pretty clever as it allows you to pick a word or symbol to use in place of "@" when you enter a "mailto:", but when you click on the "mailto:" link, the javascript replaces your symbol with "@"!... It's rediculously easy to use...

replace all email addresses in ur website with transparent graphics (gif/png)
example: http://www.freefm.de/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=12
and add this little code as image link
<a href="mailto.php?to=emailaddress&subject=emailsubject"><img src="image.gif" alt="mailme" title="mailme" border="0"></a>
mailto.php:
<?php
$name=$_GET['to'];
$subject=$_GET['subject'];
// echo "mailto:".$name."@domain.tld?subject=".$subject;
header("Location: mailto:".$name."@domain.tld?subject=".$subject);
exit;
?>
