<!--webbot bot="Validation" B-Value-Required="TRUE" I-Minimum-Length="7"
I-Maximum-Length="7" S-Validation-Constraint="Equal to"
S-Validation-Value="yhctskw" -->
<input type="text" name="T1" size="20" maxlength="7">This input field should help with a standard form, I think it will work for the Discussion Web as well. You could change this periodically if necessary.
