That's a different thing, Pillai. That changes the entire field, not just the character being typed. Typically it's only done when you exit the field, at which point the whole field magically goes from lower case to upper case. You can do it on each key press as well, but it can be quite annoying to see the flash. It tends to lose the carat position as well; try using the arrow key in the following: <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY> <form> <input type=text name=joe size=50 length=50 onkeyup="this.value = this.value.toUpperCase();"> <input type=submit> </form> </body></html> Joe > From: Narayanan R Pillai > > > >A simple example: I can dynamically change the user's > >keystroke from a lower-case 'a' to an upper-case 'A' (just like we do in > >the 5250).
