JavaScript That Kills Google AutoLink Links

javascript That Kills Google AutoLink Links
By Olivier Duffez

Chris and Gurtie at Search Guild have published a working script that webmasters can insert into their webpages that kills Google AutoLink links.

What you need to do:

- Insert the script anywhere in your html

- or link it using the <script> tag in the of your pages

- and it will rewrite, the rewritten urls. Killing the Autolink functionality.

Here is the code:

[code]// AutoBlink
// Puts Google\'s Autolink on the Blink :)
// (c) 2005 Chris Ridings http://www.searchguild.com
// Redistribute at will but leave this message intact

var linkcount;
function countlinks() {
  var numlinks;
  numlinks=0;
  for (i=0; i < document.links.length; i++) {
   numlinks++;
  }
  return numlinks;
}

function checklinks() {
  if (!(linkcount==countlinks())) {
   // Something changed the links!
   // Iterate for an id of _goog
   found=0;
   for (i=0; i < document.links.length; i++) {
   if (document.linksi.id.substring(0,5)=="_goog") {
    // If we find an id of _goog then remove the link!
    var tr = document.linksi.parentTextEdit.createTextRange();
    tr.moveToElementText(document.linksi);
    tr.execCommand("Unlink",false);
    tr.execCommand("Unselect",false);
   }
  }
 }
 setTimeout("checklinks()",500);
}

if (document.getElementById && document.createElement) {
 linkcount=countlinks();
 setTimeout("checklinks()",500);
}[/code]
