Ton of Javascript?  Heck no.  You need a little bit to handle things like
lower to upper, but that's it.  My entire JavaScript, that handles focus,
cursor positioning, shift codes and so on, is 140 lines long, and in a
standard .js file that is included by my pages.  That's certainly not a ton.

On the other hand, I don't support all features on Netscape, because
Netscape doesn't yet fully support the Document Object Model.  Until it
does, there's no way to keep the JavaScript clean enough.
