Aaaand that works! Now to add something for focusing
on it when someone clicks on it...
I'm working on something I saw in the ComputerWorld magazine -
There was an article in the technology section on Biometrics,
so I decided to attempt the Typing Patterns part. But I couldn't
seem to managed changing 'field, so I decided to stick to this,
since I've previously gotten something similar to work.

PS - I typed "Hello!" into it twice, and timing using now/time/precise,
I got the -exact- same interval between the same characters each time!
