JavaScript - form to send email

Email Form in Javascript

This was sent to me to try out and it does work. I modified the form in JavaScript to make it harder for some web bots to identify the actual address.

  To make the form harder to be crawled by web crawlers you should save this code as an external JS file. Then on your html page call the JS into your page to be displayed on an onload.

-----------------------------------------
 
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
function valid(form) {
var field = form.email; // email field
var str = field.value; // email string
var reg1 = /(@.*@)|(\.\.)|(@\.)|(\.@)|(^\.)/; // not valid
var reg2 = /^.+\@(\[?)[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+\.([a-zA-Z]{2,3}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$/; // valid
if (!reg1.test(str) && reg2.test(str)) { // if syntax is valid
alert("Thank your for your comments."); // this is optional
return true;
}
alert("\"" + str + "\" is an invalid e-mail!"); // this is also optional
field.focus();
field.select();
return false;
}
// -->
</script>
<script language="JavaScript"><!--

document.write('<FORM METHOD="POST"')
document.write('ACTION="mailto:')
document.write('youremailnamehere')
document.write('@')
document.write('yourmailservernamehere')
document.write('.com" ENCTYPE="text/plain" onSubmit="return valid(this)">')
document.write('Your e-mail address:<BR><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="email" SIZE="40">')
document.write('<BR>Your Name:<BR><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="name" SIZE="40"><BR>Subject:<BR>')
document.write('<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="subject" SIZE="40"><BR>Comments:<BR>')
document.write('<TEXTAREA NAME="comments" COLS="40" ROWS="5"></TEXTAREA><BR>')
document.write('<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Send Mail">')
document.write('</FORM>')
// -->
</script>

-----------------------------------------

NOTE: You need to change the email address to where is is to be sent.
NOTE: You can create more input fields just make sure you NAME="them"
