Hi Leah,

The Links module was not designed for email links. If your using the html module, when you click the link toolbar item in the FCKeditor they have a dropdown there to chose link type and you must choose email.

Hope it helps,

Oh, I see what you mean. Its because FCKeditor is adding javascript to populate the subject and body, and its trying to protect the email address from being scraped by spam bots by encoding it some way. You can always drop to source view and manually add a link with mailto, but then you will get a lot more spam at that email address. There really are not a lot of great solutions to showing email addresses and not getting more spam. I usually use no link at all and just put joe dot audett at gmail dotcom or some variant that people can read but spam bots hopefully can't.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Well, for now we have to live with what FCKeditor provides unless someone makes a plugin for FCKeditor that does it better. The thing about it is, its a moving target, as soon as any obfuscation technique becomes widely used the spam bots find a way to crack it and it becomes less effective. ROT13 look promising, but just like captchas, eventually someone will break it and then someone will come up with another technique.

From source view, you can use whatever technique you wish.

Best,

Joe
