2 more questions about operations on text in fields

[Thierry Arbellot]

I did a test with the handler in a stack's script and got the same 
problem.

But the special characters are properly passed in the keyDown message, 
also if the keyUp message is in a field script.

Have you check the deleteKey and backspaceKey messages ?
