win2000 - experimental build put together byu tom pixley on 2002-03-18 1. open attached testcase. 2. enter something in the textarea controls. expected: in the first textarea control - you should see only "onkeypress event " in the secondt textarea control - you should see only "onkeydown event " actual: you will notice that an extra character, other than expected, will be displayed each time you type something in the control. I do not see this happening in 03/18 commercial build.

Nope, these are both good. The functionality change is intentional so that the character is enterered after script handlers have all fired. Thus the script handler sets the value and then the browser enters the new character. The character entry can now be cancelled as a result by calling preventDefault() within the handler. IE has the same event sequence.

ok. verified invalid.
