deleted a letter automatically in one field when i delete in another

[rachelason]

HI! I am looking for some on user interface form
I have a page where there are two form, When i type in one form say the other form field get filled up automatically. I can do that easily, but when i try to delete a letter from the text box, it wouldn't delete it , any suggestion. this is the code.
<form name="f1">
<input type="text" name="name1" onkeypress="enteringvalue(f2.name2);">
</form>
<form name="f2">
<input type="text" name="name2"></form>

Script:
function enteringvalue(t2){
t2.value += String.fromCharCode(event.keyCode);
}
If i use onkeydown or onkeyup, it registers the event(delete event), but doesn't delete the letter and displays funny character for shift etc.
Has anyone done this kind of work before?
Thanks in advance

Here are my proposed changes:

FORMS:

<form name="f1">
<input type="text" name="name1" onkeyup="enteringvalue(this, document.f2.name2);">
</form>

<form name="f2">
<input type="text" name="name2">
</form>

FUNCTION:

function enteringvalue(t1, t2){
    t2.value = t1.value;
}

hi again, the code works fine except that the second box always doesn't picks up last character. What i mean is if i type 'hello there' , the second form displays only 'hello ther', until i press a spacebar or do anything else int he same text box. am i missing out something?If i go to the next form variable obviously the textbox is left where it is. Any suggestion.

Did you use onkeyup like I suggested?
