I know it's cool to bash Microsoft whenever the chance arises, but a simple
sample would show you this is not some "bastardized" javascript unless NN is
now bastardizing it too:

<form name="Test1">


<textarea onkeydown="alert('hello')"></textarea>

</form>


Put that on a page and view it in NN and you'll see it works fine, as long
as
you're not using the ultimate in bastardized browsers - NN4.7
