Hi

I'm just putting together a web-page onwhich I am going to include an email
address in a "mailto" link.

To hide it from the spam bots I'm going to use ASCII codes for each
character of the email address.

What I'm wondering is: will this work if I actually display the email
address in the web-page as well as put it in the href for the "mailto"
link?

The reason I ask is that a human being will be able to see and even copy
and paste the email address from the web-page. Will a spam bot be able to
"see" it as well?

TIA
