Removing javascript in show_join

[CozzaParticipant]

I’m currently in the process of completing a fanlisting, but have been faced with an obstacle — the javascript I’m using for the fanlisting refuses to load the join page completely due to the the javascript that’s present in the show_join page.

Is there any way to modify the following code to remove the javascript, but keep the variables (which are used in the rest of the file) intact?

if( $show_form ) {<br />

$cutup = explode( '@', $info['email'] );<br />

$email_js = '<script type="text/javascript">' . "rn<!--rn" .<br />

"jsemail = ( '$cutup[0]' + '@' + '$cutup[1]' ); rn" .<br />

"document.write( '<a href="mailto:' + jsemail + '">email me</' + " .<br />

"'a>' );rn" . ' -->' . "rn" . '</script>';</a>

This modification will be used for one fanlisting only (just give the file a dif name to include), so I’m not too worried about receiving spam.

Oh — and I wasn’t sure whether you needed to see the whole show_join file. The code above is the only script tag in it, though.

Thanks in advance!

The reason that page isn’t showing up is likely because of this line:

"document.write( '<a href="mailto:' + jsemail + '">email me</' + "

You need to escape the double quotes in the anchor HTML:

"document.write( '<a href="mailto:' + jsemail + '">email me</' + "

Thanks, amphigory — previously the title of the webpage was not loading, now it is. However, the issue still remains. I think it’s just clashing with the pre-existing javascript on my page. So if there’s any way to remove it, I’d be grateful!

Well… I’m not at all familiar with Enthusiast so I don’t know if those are required variables. But, can you set $email_js = '';?

[CozzaParticipant]

Omg! I think I just about fainted when I saw it working!

Thank you so much! I removed the script tags from between the ‘s as you said, and it worked like a charm! ? 8D

Just an added note to anyone else who may read this thread having the same issue – once you remove the script tags you’ll need to modify the mailto: parts of the document. ^^

Thanks again, amphigory!

Please bear in mind that this removes the JavaScript “protection” from email addresses listed on the members page. I think JS protection is all but useless but others may desire it, so you may wish to put a note on your fanlisting’s join page to warn them of the modification, as a courtesy? Just a thought

[CozzaParticipant]

ah yes – I’ve already modified that fl’s template to completely remove the option of displaying email addresses ^^

Even better
