Can I Hide My Email Address In Require File

[Volitics]

I am wanting to hide my email address so that a spammer cannot use one of their "crawlbots" to crawl the pages in my web site and steal my email address.

Can a spammer's crawlbot find my email address if I place my email address in an include file and place the include file somewhere like, for example, the configuration folder?

Thanking you in advance.

well no matter where u hide it, if the email address is present on the final page that is generated using php then it is accesible.

thats what i think, but i could be wrong

You could use the $HTTP_USER_AGENT function, and if it is the googlebot or similar, then don't serve the e-mail address....
