I have a contact form where the email is actually accessible in the source, because I’m using a cgi file to process it. My concern are the mail crawlers, and I was wondering if this is a no-go and I should switch to another more secure form. Or, if there was some tricks to ‘confuse’ the crawlers ? Thanks for your ideas.
I always convert the characters of email addresses (including the mailto statement if applicable) into character entities. This seems to work nicely, I have yet to receive automated spam on certain email addresses which are available in this manner on different websites. This converter illustrates what I mean.
