You are calling this function onKeyDown right? Just leave the function
call out on the textarea you don't want to trap the backspace key on.

Also event.which is NS4's version of event.keyCode. If you do a little
object detection you can make this script work cross browser...

if (document.all)
  keyPressed = event.keyCode;
if (document.layers)
  keyPressed = event.which
