Is it purely on OS settings, are users happy with this happening - I know I'd definately _not_ want such formatting to happen - I'd like what I entered submitted, but I realise I may not be "normal" > this is a common requirement for web applications Could you show me a site that does this - since it's possible (indeed trivial) with javascript I assume if it is a common requirement sites would already be doing it.
