spam free forms?

[Pam]

Is there a way to keep a form made in FP spam free? If so - how do I do
that - if not, are there any free programs out there or scripts that are
EASY to configure?

thanks

Requires server side scripting using ASP, asp.NET, PHP etc - whatever
your host supports.
Using server side scripting will enable you to remove all visible traces
of email addresses from the website.
Use this in conjunction with a CAPTCHA -

Otherwise (will not protect your email address from being found) use a
CAPTCHA. These are usually images containing distorted numbers or
letters that have to be typed into a field. Validation on the field
checks the value entered - if its OK the form is submitted. The image
can be replaced by a question such "What colour is a blue sky?" and
check for the value "blue" (allow for case differences). If you use
server side scripting, also validate on the server since this will fail
if the browser being used has JavaScript disabled.

I used this script at http://www.rebel.com.au/hiddenemail.htm . I'm no
expert but if it works it pretty simple

That will work for a mailto link, but not for a form that sends data to
email.
