The best way is a form that also has a secure SPAM code or just make a image
that search engines cannot read...

I believe that people that does not have Javascript working are not using internet for the purpose i produce websites for, and im sorry we cant accept all kind of users. Also users has to follow the standard where website production also is based in
the clients need and NOT on web standards.

Standard freaks are trying to make things better for web standards and not for the clients
or visitors in general...

There is a war and it will always be there.... until understanding from all parts are met.

Why is this the "best way"? It means that anyone without JavaScript enabled cannot contact you. Spam is a pain, but not giving a user the basic opportunity of contacting you is a bigger problem IMO. I think mailto's and spam filters are the "best way" to go, as they are accessible for everyone. J

Hi

The best way is to encrypt the email address and make use of a js. This will avoid loads of problems specially spamming.

This is simple just follow the instructions here

    This is one of the thing I can't decide. At time, it seemed
    nothing wrong to have an email link (js encrypted, not mailto that
    shows email address nakely to Mr. Spam King), but as many people
    are actually using webmail, or sometimes access websites via
    public computer (internet cafe or library for instance), I find
    that having email link actually is causing usability for users.

    When client insists on having direct email link. What do you do so
    that it won't cause problem for above users?

    Thanks!
