JavaScript-Programming: How to prevent Opera from popping up the form-predefines and notes...

Hi, I can't get Opera from popping up the box with the form-predefinitions and notes...

You can see what I mean here, type something in the text box and press arrow down:
Demo

How can I keep at least focus on what I want using javascript or even better prevent the popup?

Thanks...

...if there's no Opera-pop up for you, you'll need to enter something into your wand, your name or something. Or save a opera note by right clicking this sentence and choose "add note"...

Ok, here's the answer: use the keydown event and e.preventDefault();

Are you sure? Select the "Search Topic" field on top of this page and press the Down key. You should see the contents of your Notes panel - even with javascript turned off.
Hard to believe, but it's a feature. You can turn it off like this
