SWFObject and Google Analytics

Just a quick note: I’ve posted two new SWFObject examples: Embedding a SWF then displaying markup to copy, and Wrapping Google Analytics Code in a DomReady event.
I wanted to point out that the code for wrapping Google Analytics code in a domready event is not actually SWFObject-specific; it just happens to be an issue a lot of SWFObject users have complained about over the last couple of years. My example includes a SWF, but the code is usable in any webpage. I highly recommend it (or your own home-brewed variation of it) simply because it moves Google’s element out of your markup and into the where it belongs. Progressive enhancement FTW!

A while back, I posted my method for defeating spambots that harvest email addresses. This post is an update to that original method. It explores cleaner, less obtrusive code approaches and more accessible/usable HTML markup.

Everyone knows the story: an innocent email address is posted online and a big bad spambot finds it, relaying it to every spammer on the face of the earth… the email address becomes useless due to the 500 spam emails you get every day!
