No. The Virtual Keyboard is there for the benefit of users abroad 
whose machines do not have Hebrew keycaps, for example.

I gave that page as an example, but I have the same problem on any 
other Hebrew page with a form -- none of which offer the Virtual 
Keyboard. In other words, the VK is there as a convenience; it is not 
intended to be the primary means of entering data.

The extensive Help (the link is the line on the right side of the 
page, just above "International Directory", talks about typing in 
data, but never mentions the VK. It's an extra.

Please replace "SPAM-FOILER" with "sgoodman".

The Terrorist Credo: You can make friends by exploding bombs in public
places, and the more people you kill, the better they will like you.

200 years of European fecklessness in the face of Arab terror: Tripoli
Pirates (1814); OPEC Oil (1973); Saddam Hussein and Yasser Arafat 
(1990 et seq.) -- but actually financing it is a 21st-century European
wrinkle.
