Javascript Email Year Scrambler

This javascript snippet is designed to put the year into an email address such as  name2007@yourdomain.com  so that you can setup a forward at that address each year sending to a real email inbox.  That way, if the spammers do get ahold of it you can turn it off at the end of the year and move on to name2008@yourdomain.com.  Of course you must remember each year to setup this email forward inbox to send to your valued and SPAM FREE email address.  Live example of this on our contact page and below.   

Javascript Genterated email address:

Source code: 
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
//js email year scrambler  by Michael Hazzard   http://miramardesign.com , http://michaelhazzard.com

var currentYear = new Date();
var year = currentYear.getFullYear();

//function getAddress() //if you prefer to use a function method uncomment
//{ //and call onLoad="getAddress()" in the body tag

var teammember=new Array("info","webmaster"); //put name into array to confuse bots and make extensible

var arroba = '@'; // put at sign in var to throw off bots

var site = location.hostname; //pull domain dynamically to further confuse bots;
var site = site.replace(/www./gi, "");  //remove www. in safari or other browsers that might return www.domain.com  for location.hostname

var subject = '?subject=Contact%20from%20' + site;

//document.getElementById('address').innerHTML = "<a href=" + "mail" + "to:" + teammember[0] + year + arroba + site + subject + ">Click Here </a>" //for function method also need a <div id="address"> </div> in body

document.write("<a href=" + "mail" + "to:" + teammember[0] + year + arroba + site + subject + ">Click Here</a>");

//} end function if using function method remember to put a div in body w/ id=address

</script>

 Usage:  paste the script tag into the body of your html doc and change the teammember to the desired name (it defaults to info) then setup an email forward from that name to your permanent email.
