jQuery
I used to use this script for jquery email obfuscation:
$(".replaceAt").replaceWith("@");
$(".obfuscate").each(function () {
$(this).attr("href", "mailto:"+$(this).text());
});
<a class="obfuscate">name<span class="replaceAt">-AT-</span>server.com</a>
But with jQuery 1.4.x, I now get this error:
uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: @
Looking this up on the net, it looks like jQuery thinks that the @ is a special character. I tried to "\@" it and a few other things with not luck. I'm not enough of a jQuery ninja to know how to fix this. Any ideas?
