Useful tools for web developers
I would just like to share a link to the simplest tools that can help web-developers, facilitating their routine procedures.
Almost a year ago there was a need to protect a large number of e-mail addresses from email robots, for subsequent spamming. On this occasion, quickly sketched a page that allows you to encode addresses using JavaScript. The algorithm was taken from the Smarty template engine plugin (for the most inquisitive, I can put the implementation on PHP separately).
Of course he has his drawbacks:
')
The page for generating an e-mail link looks like this:
MailLink Tool Page
Also, it was often necessary to “password-protect” directories on servers, for which one had to expend efforts on generating crypt-passwords, as well as recall and google the password request format in .htaccess files. At one point, laziness was overwhelmed and a page was written to generate the lines in the .htpasswd file.
Passwd tool page
Well, and finally, it was often necessary to create lighter or dim tones for additional elements based on the basic color of the site. Previously, I started Photoshop for this, made a fill with the base color, and then exposing the transparency of the layer, “measured” the resulting color. At one point, and it got tired and implemented this simple algorithm on a web page. Now, by entering 2 hex codes of colors, you can get their offset in 10% increments.
ColorMix Tool Page
Well, if you have ideas on modernizing existing tools, as well as introducing new ones, I will be glad to hear them, discuss them and ... if they are useful, then of course implement.
PS: Though on Habré for a very long time, but this is my first post. Personally, I would hope not the last. ;)

Of course he has his drawbacks:
- the address will be shown only when javascript is enabled
- if the robot has JS support, then it can recognize the hidden e-mail
