PHP Based Email Address Obfuscator For Website Mailto: Tags
I found a PHP based email obfuscator for use in websites, where the
source HTML (PHP, actually) file doesn't contain the actual email
address in the Mailto tag, but generates it and that generated page
(containing a full and conventional Mailto: tag) is what is ultimately
presented to the user.
The intent is to thwart Spam bots and spiders, by NOT having the email
address in the original HTML Source, but ultimately presenting it to
the person browsing the site.
But here's my question.... Even though the program works exactly as
advertised, isn't this a case of flawed logic on the part of this
scripts author? PHP runs server-side, so won't the PHP be
interpreted, whether it's requested by a bot, a spider, or a legit
website visitor? (and thereby, presenting the bot with the full
Mailto: tag and email address anyway)? Or is there something basic
I'm missing here?

Max. Size Of Email Address List With Mailto: ?
I'm experiencing problems with a large Bcc: email address list. I can't use PHP mail() right now, and I'm not sure I'll be able to in the future, so I'm trying to make my code work with HTML mailto:. I'm finding that I can generate an email message in MS Outlook IF my Bcc: list is about 90 emails long. Anything longer than that, and the email will not generate, and I get no error message. I'm not sure if there is a max. number of email addresses, or a max. number of characters. I can MANUALLY cut and paste a list of 300+ email addresses into the Bcc: field in the email message, but I need to generate this email message via code. My code looks something like this: ">Generate Email with HTML mailto: $emailBCCList = 'name1@domain.com,name2@domain.com,name3@domain.com,etc.' I'll need to send out a single email that has approx. 300 or more Bcc: email addresses as part of a large invitation (this is NOT spam; these individuals have asked to be invited).

Serving A Website Based On Source Internet Address ?
Based on the source internet address a different version of the website should be presented/served to the user/browser. I would like to keep the script as simple as possible and it should replace the index.php. The script could look something like this in pseudo code: if SourceAddress = â¸.3.5.1' then begin ShowBlueWebsite; // load/show BlueIndex.htm end else if SourceAddress = ït.5.15.7' then begin ShowRedWebsite; // load/show RedIndex.htm end; Is this possible with php ?

Banning An IP Address From Seeing My Website.
Someone is abusing the comments system I have in place on my website. I have their IP address, but is there a way to prevent them from seeing my website altogether? I was thinking that when someone visits my homepage (which I will turn into a PHP file), their IP address is cross-referenced with a database of banned IPs. If it is in there, then they are sent to a different website - like Google.

Member Based Website
I have a member based website, and when a user logs on it sets online = 1 in the database, and when they log off it sets it to = 0. When they close the window, they automatically log off. the session closes. How can I let the database know this? Is there a way I can have the online column automatically turn to 0 after 30 minutes of inactivity or something? Would I need to set up a cron job on the server (I pay for hosting, dont know if I can even do that).

CSV File-based Address Book Code Snippet?

I'd just like to keep a list of addresses in a CSV file (ie. columns last name, first name, e-mail, office #, etc.) so as to ease backing up, and read/update this list from a PHP script. I guess it's pretty much just a loop to read + parse, and a form to update, but if someone has the code handy, I'm interested :-)

Questions/Recommendations On Content/Membership Based Website
I've searched groups.google.com already to see if I can determine if using PHP/MySQL (if needed) for a web site I wish to develop. As the subject indicated, it will be a content based site with videos - NO, it's not a porn site though. I thought that I'd list the key requirements/specifications for my web site below and was wondering if some of you'd be so kind as to provide your thoughts on each and comment on them with respect to how PHP can accomplish them or how adept PHP is at accomplishing them? (FYI, I'm an Oracle developer and haven't had too much "real" programming/coding practice since I finished school, but I can still, given enough time to familiarize myself, C/C++/Java and some OOP. But I really haven't had any experience in setting up a website/webserver at all.) -- Strong authentication required since it will be membership based. Someone had suggested that I use a third party billing company, such as iBill, PayCom, CCBill and etc, to simplify the billing process and I'm looking into it. I know it's sounding more and more like an adult site, but it's not. However, if PHP/MySQL offers a better billing method/member info DB maintenance capability and membership authentication, please inform me. -- The instructional videos probably will not be updated/switched/added too often. The same goes for the accompanying pictures for the lessons. The pics though will need to have an accompanying explanation. -- There will be about 30 videos in all, all about 45 seconds to a minute in length. -- I wish to be able to create a member page which they will be greeted with once they log in, muck like "My eBay" over at eBay.com with the following showing, among other things: A) Each member will have a lesson plan according to their expertise or level of completed lessons and I wish to be able for members to maintain a record of which lessons they've completed in each of the plans and which lessons they still need to complete displayed in some chart form. B) I wish to, though it may sound impossible or wishful thinking, be able to prevent straight copying or lifting of my pages, including the videos and the pictures. I know I can disable "right click", but besides that is there anyway I can prevent it from happening? I have worked very hard and spent long hours in developing the content for this website and I'd hate for any copycat websites to just lift my pages somehow and use it as their own on their own website. -- If the site membership grows, I'd imagine that there'd be many simultaneous access to the membership content, including the videos.

The big problem is that it allows addresses without a suffix. For instance, it allows "jaeger@hotmail", without the ".com". (This isn't my address.) I tried other invalid forms, and it caught them. I figured someone would already have a ereg string which works, so I won't bother trying to figure it out.
