"Protect your Email address from Spam (unsolicited Email advertisements) using the Enkoder Form. Just like the Enkoder for Mac OS X, the Enkoder Form will encrypt your Email address and wrap the result in JavaScript, hiding it from Email-harvesting robots which crawl the web looking for exposed addresses. Just paste the resulting JavaScript into your website's HTML. Your address will be displayed correctly by web-browsers, but will be virtually indecipherable to Email harvesting robots.

By Treasury Board, Government of Canada, March, 2003 "

"More than 225 software products purport to manage Web content. To make your life easier, we list only 40 of them, divided into 7 categories. These are not the "best" CMS tools, simply -- in our judgement -- the most significant. The list changes from time to time, but never exceeds 40 vendors/products."
