Hi everyone

Since posting this I have had time to think and you are right, splitting the email field makes it far too complicated to fill in the form and as Weedy Lady has said many people won't read the it, I don't have a clue what K.I.S.S is anyway.

Weedy Lady has a good idea bit it's hardly a contact form just an image of your email address, my visitors need to leave information to be added to a directory.

It seems everywhere I look for a solution the more obsticles I find but I have never been one for giving up.

So splitting the email address won't work, so what will?

Seems the only idea that won't complicate matters for the visitors is the hidden field which when filled by the bots gets rejected.

Anyone out there using this method with NMS formmail or CSS, I would love to hear from you and how you implimented it.

Please note that you will be explaining this to a person with very little coding experience.
