My pleasure.

<?php

function ascii_encode($str){
         global $encoded;
         $encoded="";
     for ($i=0; $i < strlen($str); $i++){
         $encoded .= '&#'.ord(substr($str,$i)).';';
     }
     return;
}

if ($submit){
         ascii_encode($myemail);
         $link = "<a href=\"mailto:$encoded\">$encoded</a>";
         $display=htmlentities($link);
         print ("<p>$display</p>");
}

print ("<form action=\"$PHP_SELF\" method=\"post\">");
print ("<input type=\"Text\" name=\"myemail\">");
print ("<input type=\"Submit\" name=\"submit\">");
print ("</form>");

?>
