Eh? How is this going to kill the user's input? The script is fired when the
field acquires focus, not at any other time. Are you getting this confused
with forms which give focus to a particular field when the page has loaded
(using the onload handler in the body element)? If so, that is a particular
bugbear of mine and one which I addressed in here long ago:
