Re: yab_email (simple obfuscate/defuscate email adresses, jQuery based)

My knowledge of JS, etc. is little so I don’t know if the plug-in really works … !?

Live > stichtingkarkas.com … the contact info is at the bottom.

TXP (tag in article) >

p(contact). E: <txp:yab_email email="info@stichtingkarkas.nl" text="info@stichtingkarkas.nl" set_js="0" />

HTML (at bottom page) >

<!-- calling jQuery the right way > https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/blob/master/index.html -->
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="js/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"><\/script>')</script>
<!-- only if jQuery include is at the bottom of HTML > http://goo.gl/I7nzpz -->
<txp:yab_email_javascript />

Results in (HTML rendered) >

<p class="contact">E: <a class="yab-email-link" href="mailto:info(%20at%20)stichtingkarkas.nl">info@stichtingkarkas.nl</a></p>

Is this all?

Hi Jop,

My knowledge of JS, etc. is little so I don’t know if the plug-in really works … !?

It is working. But I would leave the text attribute blank:

<txp:yab_email email="info@stichtingkarkas.nl" set_js="0" />

So the displayed text is the obfuscated mail address too, otherwise the exact text phrase will be shown, which is in your case the non-obfuscated mail address.

Re: yab_email (simple obfuscate/defuscate email adresses, jQuery based)

Thanks Trenc … but why can’t I see an obfuscated email address? The answer is (of course) because the script defuscating the address also … isn’t it?

Thanks Trenc … but why can’t I see an obfuscated email address? The answer is (of course) because the script defuscating the address also … isn’t it?

So it is.
The tag itselfs is calling some PHP functions. These will obfuscate your mail and create the mailto-link. The result you can see in your HTML source code of your website (btw. it is a really nice clean layout and design).
It’s a link with the class yab-email-link and every char in your mail address is replaced with its HTML entity. Some mail harvester can’t read these entities. Additonally the @ char is replaced by a (%20at%20). The %20 were escaped whitespaces für HTML validity.

The JavaScript in your browser then replace the (%20at%20) back to a normal @. So the browser renders the link normally and it looks familiar.
Due mail harvesters are really simple and don’t understand JavaScript the harvesters will only see the obfuscated mail address. In case of e.g name@example.com the harvester will see the source code:

&#110;&#97;&#109;&#101;(%20at%20)&#101;&#120;&#97;&#109;&#112;&#108;&#101;&#46;&#99;&#111;&#109;

An browser with JavaSript disabled and some »render-abled« harvester will render:

name( at )example.com

And a browser with JavaScript enabled will see the correct mail:

name@example.com

Hope that helps,

trenc

Re: yab_email (simple obfuscate/defuscate email adresses, jQuery based)

I need to obfuscate an email address in a section of my site.
Anyway, cause I need to have this address:

mysite.it/privacy

and not this:

mysite.it/privacy/name_of_the_article_talking_about_the_privacy_policy

I have to write the article in the page itself, without using the normal method (create article).
In this way I can’t use the plugin tag.

So, can you help me to obfuscate the mail without the plugin but directly with an HTML code? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Hi candyman,

you can use the plugin in an article or a form or a page. It doesn’t matter. Plugin tags can be used everywhere, when activated in preferences.
