| Hi All,I have a form on an html page that calls for a error check on a PHP file. I have added required fields and a captcha and wanted to know if the SPAMBOTS out there can still get to this email address in the PHP file called?So do I need to create a SQL database to encrypt the email address and make it call a hash string or hex code, whatever they are that hide passwords and use it for the destination email address on the contact form?My main site HTML page I have the form itself go to <form method="post" id="contactform" action="checkform3.php" onsubmit="return formCheck(this);">and inside the checkform3.php I have the destination email in it visible as:$emailTo = 'JDS <myemail@mydomainname.com>';So even though my email address is not visible in the main html page itself, I am still using a visible email to spambots that go through PHP files on the server, right?Or should the required field and captcha additions resolve the spamming and I am fine or do I need to also find a way to encrypt or hide the text email in the PHP error check file?If so, what are the best ways to do that?Thanks in advance,JDJames Smith |
