Hi,

Some more inputs...

- onchange event works fine in IE but not in firefox (doesn't fire a
change event when using keyboard to change values).
- both onchange and onkeyup events are fired when your event handler
has an alert box (you loose focus and an keyboard event with
keycode=38 is fired along with onChange event)
- note both events are fired only when u have an alert in event
handler else only key event is fired...

Can someone tell me if this could be done... how can avoid 2 events
getting fired and still have alert in my event handler....
