My Email Code For My Sites Stopped Working

6 replies
Hi, the email code that I had used on all my websites for years, for the Contact Us,has stopped working on all my sites. I am not sure why, because I did not change anything. I tried to get it to work, but it is beyond me, and the ones I could get on the internet, are not what I really want.

The code below is the one I used for years, until it stopped working on all my sites. It is simple to use, and always worked great.

If you have any questions or concerns please <script language="javascript">
<!--
var part1 = "admin";
var part2 = "dogearproblems.com";
var part3 = "Click Here To Contact Us";
document.write('<a href="mai' + 'lto:' + part1 + '@' + part2 + '">');
document.write(part3 + '</a>');
// -->
</script>
I will respond to all messages as soon as possible.
Thank You

Does anyone have a simple script like the one above, that I can use, or can mine be fixed?
Thank You

    I wrote a free feedback form service called Freedback.com two decades ago (although I no longer own that site).

    Looks like your script is commented out. Remove this part <!--

      Thank you Aussie Brett, you made my day. I did what you said, and it fixed the problem. I have about 25 sites, and all the contact us forms stopped working on them. Not sure what could have caused that. I spent all day yesterday, trying to find a similar script, without success.

      One question, do you have any idea what would have caused that character to get into every copy of that script I had, on all my websites, and even the extra copies I had on my external hard drives?

      Thanks Again
      Glenn

        No problems im glad I could help. How the script got like that im not sure. Im assuming that at one stage there was a // before the <!--.

        That would have commented out <!-- therefor disregarding its value.

          The purpose of the mild obfuscation is to prevent Web spiders from extracting the email address. You may want to edit your post accordingly, as a courtesy.

    ahh that does make sense thanks David. You learn something everyday. I also learnt the meaning of 'obfuscation'!.
