But there is one little thing i can't figure out: the femail is shown in the form mailuser [] domain.tld instead of mailuser@domain.tld In the database is the femail correct including the ampersand. Can anybody tell me how to fix it? Thanks a lot Lena

Various methods are used to read and collect emails on pages and this is one of the (also) various ways to get around it. Chestnut ! Site Admin

As i remeber there are some scripts out there to scramble the email-address in a way that it is still usable but only for a browser (i think its a kind of &number; string). Or what will happen if you replace with &s;? The idea preventing spam of cause is fine, but a usable string to use i.e. in a mailto: is fine to. Will be fine to solve both problems. My php-knowledge is not at a high level, just anought to path a little but i will see what i can find out. Greetings Lena
