In addition, you might want to add some verification to your TAF file:

In an If statement check your comments field for anything remotely looking like a link, and disallow it by returning an error page (you'll use the Advanced button to enter something similar to the following):

(<@ARG Comments> contains '<' or <@ARG Comments> contains '>' or <@ARG Comments> contains '//' or <@ARG Comments> contains '&' or <@ARG Comments> contains '*'or <@ARG Comments> contains '^'or <@ARG Comments> contains '~' or len(<@ARG Comments>) < 2)

Likewise, check your email field for the following:

(<@ARG email> contains '<' or <@ARG email> contains '>' or <@ARG email> contains '?' or <@ARG email> contains '/' or <@ARG email> contains '&' or <@ARG email> contains '*' or <@ARG email> contains ' ')

Just switching my email forms from a standard javascript form verification to Tango cut my spam mail down to zilch.

Has anyone implemented a captcha system into Tango?

I have a mailbot sending utility that has worked well for years as it stores the email address internally and doesn't show it on the page. But now some forms bots are hammering a couple of sites that use my email sending mailbot so I need to add another line of defense.

Any tips/advice are appreciated.

Thanks,
