<FONT SIZE="2">Hi Group!<BR>
<BR>
I've just recently joined and thought I'd introduce myself, before asking a<BR>
question. My name is Kyla and I'm a web designer. I run my own web design<BR>
company in British Columbia, Canada and have been designing for the web for<BR>
about four years now. I'm not really a coder, but I like to understand the<BR>
basics of how something works, and so here I am ready to soak up all your<BR>
knowledage about javascript!<BR>
<BR>
I just found some nifty code for hiding email addresses (thanks to<BR>
netmechanic) from Email Spiders. The only problems is that it uses HTML<BR>
text links and I'm using a link from an image. The code is this:<BR>
<BR>
<p>Send your comments and questions to our<BR>
<script language=javascript><BR>
<!--<BR>
var contact = "Newsletter Editor"<BR>
var email = "news"<BR>
var emailHost = "netmechanic.com"<BR>
document.write("<a href=" + "mail" + "to:" + email + "@" + emailHost+ ">"+<BR>
contact + "</a>" + ".")<BR>
//--><BR>
</script><BR>
</p><BR>
<BR>
Can you tell me if it'll still work if I take out the line that states:<BR>
<BR>
var contact = "Newsletter Editor"<BR>
<BR>
as this creates an HTML link on my page?<BR>
<BR>
TIA and have a sunny day,<BR>
<BR>
