Obfuscating mailto link in Web Gallery

Question

hello...
I'm using the Web module a lot, and want to use the "Contact Info" and "Mail or Web Link" fields.
The thing is, I want to obfuscate my e-mail address so that mail scavenging bots can't collect it to generate spam. But I haven't been able to figure out how to do it in the Web module, at least in the Lightroom HTML Gallery (I'm still on Lightroom 1.4, soon to upgrade to 2).
I can see that the html generated by the default values in the template is:
<div id="contact">
<a href="mailto:user@domain"> <span
class="textColor" id="metadata.contactInfo.value">Contact Name</span>
</a>
</div>
I use JavaScript to do the obfuscation, but if I put that in the Web or Mail Link field, I get:
<div id="contact">
<a href="./<script> obfuscated code here </script>"> <span
class="textColor" id="metadata.contactInfo.value">Contact Name</span>
</a>
</div>
which is just wrong. I don't really want to edit every generated index page to put in the contact data, so I was wondering if there's some way to persuade Lightroom to do it.
The way the code should look (well, at least a way that seems to work) is something like:
<a href="mailto:"><script> obfuscated code here </script></a>
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help!

Yep: get the link in the SDK forum, read the SDK and then edit the gallery template. That way you only need to enter the code once..
