Disabling keys in the browser is a bad idea for regular users, a disabling idea 
for the vision-impaired, and for many organisations technically against the law 
since you're deliberately doing something out of the norm which makes it 
inaccesible to disabled people.

Just add

document.onkeydown       = function(e) {
    if (document.all) {
        if (event.srcElement.type=="text" || event.srcElement.type=="textarea") 
return true;
        else return false;
    }
    else {
        if (e.target.type=="text" || e.target.type=="textarea") return true;
        else return false;
    }
}        
document.onkeypress       = function(e) {
    if (document.all) {
        if (event.srcElement.type=="text" || event.srcElement.type=="textarea") 
return true;
        else return false;
    }
    else {
        if (e.target.type=="text" || e.target.type=="textarea") return true;
        else return false;
    }
}      

to your page and all keys pressing has no effect, except for text and textarea 
fields. So the only way 
still to get back ist pressing ALT-Leftarrow within a text or text area. You 
might catch this as well
but exactly catching a specific key is more complicated especially as firefox 
and ie behaviour differs in
that case.
