There is another solution that is too obvious - use a form over the form!

Example:

<SCRIPT>
onload=function() {
  setInterval("toggler()", 2000);
}
function toggler()
{
  document.layers.lyr.visibility = (document.layers.lyr.visibility == "hide") ? "show" 
: "hide";
}
</SCRIPT>
<FORM>
<INPUT TYPE="text">
</FORM>
<DIV id="lyr" style="position:absolute;left:0px;top:0px;">
<FORM>
<TEXTAREA>bla</TEXTAREA>
</FORM>
</DIV>
