Hi all,
I am in real trouble, my form stopped working and I didn’t know it, is replacing my entry with odd characters?
In “recipient” should be “email@hidden” and I enter this repeatedly (publish/upload) to no avail.
I also opened the page in Dreamweaver and made corrections but couldn’t get it to work.
Below is the code, can someone please help me.
Freeway 5 includes a function to convert any e-mail addresses in the
page into a format that spam-bot harvesters cannot easily identify.
This seems to have tripped up your form processor as well. Try this:
Delete the hidden form element from your Form Setup.
Click inside an HTML element on your page somewhere so you have a
flashing text cursor.
From the main menu, choose Insert > Markup Item. In the resulting
dialog, enter the code for your hidden form element. Be sure to self-
close the tag if you are using XHTML.
Now publish, and look at the source. Freeway is not supposed to do
anything to code within Markup Items, so you should be good. But
realize that this method of specifying values for your form processor
is hopeless against the spam-bots. You will be assimilated. (Or at
least told that some part of your anatomy could use some improvement!)

That entire thing, with your e-mail substituted, naturally.
Don’t worry about self-closing the tags, I can see from your original
example that you aren’t doing that. If you should need to move this
page to XHTML at some point, then the code would need to have a
trailing slash before the closing angle-bracket, like this:
Thanks again, but is not working, I don’t see the code when I look in the page (in Safari)
I followed your instructions very carefully.
I have an HTML item with the code in the page but it doesn’t publish I guess.
I tried publishing several times and uploading.
Click inside an HTML item on your page so you see a flashing text
cursor. Then from the main menu select Insert > Markup Item. Paste
the code into the dialog box that appears on screen, and okay that
dialog. Where your text cursor was, you should see a little box that
looks like [ H ] that. Your code is hidden in there, and if you want
to edit it later, click once on that box, then select Item > Modify
from the main menu.
