Fabian,
Thanks for the help. I found that stopPropagation by itself didn't work,
and neither did preventDefault, but if I called them both I got the
desired result. I don't understand why this is, but I'm very happy that
it works!
Thanks again.

Hi John,
you have to prevent the browser's default behaviour (focus the next
element) by calling
e.preventDefault()
This should suppress the focus change.

problem I'm having is I can't get stop the focus from being moved from
the textArea when tab is pressed. Here is the code I'm using:
this._searchBox.addEventListener('keypress', this._onKeyPress, this)
this._searchBox.addEvent
