Hi all -
I'm setting up a "feedback" form on a client-only site; no CGI/Server yet.
(and only as an exercise)
I'm using Submit and mailto together (and it works!) but i'm a bit concerned
about the spammer spiders.
The code i have got looks like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
<form name="Feedback" method=POST
action="mailto:hilma@hilma.f
reeserve.co.uk?subject=BPAK Customer Feedback" enctype="text/plain"
onSubmit="window.alert('Your form is being sent by e-mail!')">
.
.
.
.
<input type=submit>
Alternatively,
<a
href="mailto:hilma@hilma.fre
eserve.co.uk?subject=BPAK Customer Feedback">e-mail BPAK</a>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
And it works fine; but can anyone reassure me (or not!) that the spiders
won;t just pick this lot out and still get the e-mail address?
I know i could "build it up" by using JS variables, but then it doesn;t work
in non-JS enabled browsers.
thanks for any comments -
Hilma
