I find the Backspace key is problematic with form submissions. If a field in the form is not selected then the user is directed to the previous page. Is there anyway to disable this javascript or vbscript wise?

you can try this, and/or adapt it to suit your needs. note: the backspace will not work in the form element either. you'd seemingly have to loop through every text element in the form and make the onkeydown return true all the time to fix this issue.
