For the backspace issue, you can detect for the onKeyDown or onKeyPress I
believe in javascript for the backsapce key and intercept it.

For the form submit, you submit the form back to itself and have a
cgi.request_method detect for a form submission or in a seperate action page
you can store the form information in a shared variable type and sent the
action page back to the form and fill in the fields from the shared
variables.
