//////////// USAGE ////////////

This is the PHP code you write where you want the E-mail address on your web page.

<?php echo hide_email('[email protected]'); ?>

This is what the E-mail address will look like for the visitor of your web page.

<span id="e401621484">[javascript protected email address]</span><script type="text/javascript">/*<![CDATA[*/eval("var a=\"4taVs.lchvwRT8DJFqzfejbE5QXM_-irgWkSHAPmU+d1I32xKZByoC@GYNL7pnu90O6\";var b=a.split(\"\").sort().join(\"\");var c=\"p37p8p37pa1GC\";var d=\"\";for(var e=0;e<c.length;e++)d+=b.charAt(a.indexOf(c.charAt(e)));document.getElementById(\"e401621484\").innerHTML=\"<a href=\\\"mailto:\"+d+\"\\\">\"+d+\"</a>\"")/*]]>*/</script>

PHP encrypts your E-mail address and generates the javascript that decrypts it. Most bots and spiders can't execute javascript and that is what makes this work.
