I don't know much about JavaScript or VBScript, but I believe there is an
action called "OnKeyPress" or something to that effect. If that's there,
writing a function that accepts the key pressed and replace it with another
character, while the original pressed character is stored in a shadow array?
Like I said.. have no clue, if this is possible, but that is what I would
try....
