Unfortunately, this is just a very unhelpful "me too" message :(


FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #31: Mon Feb 13 18:37:20 CET 2006
java version "1.5.0-p2"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build  
1.5.0-p2-root_11_feb_2006_00_56)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-p2-root_11_feb_2006_00_56,  
mixed mode)

I observe the behaviour for example in the webchat applet of  
http://www.euirc.net. In that applet, I'm not even able to use "enter"  
to send a message.
Backspace and the other keys DO work in Eclipse (3.1.2).
