onkeydown breaks with 2.0 - .NET Framework

=?Utf-8?B?Q0dX?=

I have a .NET 1.1 application which uses several grids of text boxs (in
repeaters and datagrids) for entering arrays of time values. I use onkeydown
to allow users to navigate through the grids using arrow keys. I'm attempting
to upgrade to .NET 2.0, but that particular functionality appears to be
broken now.

The actual javascript function is quite long and really irrelevant since the
problem appears to be with the onkeydown event firing off properly. Here is a
sample ASP textbox definition from within the item template of a repeater
control:

<asp:TextBox ID="txtLineHours" onkeydown="WeekKeyDownHandler(this)"
Height="12" AutoPostBack="False"
onFocus="this.select();"
CssClass="textboxCrosshair" runat="server" Text='<%#
FormatHours(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Hours")) %>'
Width="30" Style="text-align: center" />

I tried moving the onkeydown portion to the code behind, as in...

hrBox.Attributes.Add("onKeyDown", "return WeekKeyDownHandler(this);")

I added that line to the foreach line item portion of the databinding code.
However, that doesn't work either, though I imagine the problem is with
"this". I'm not sure how to specify a textbox by unique name at this point
within the repeater array. Can anyone help me?
