The INSERT button does not toggle between inserting text and overwriting text, but just stays in insert. Is there a way to switch to overwriting text?

I am using Firefox to fill in forms in our library cataloging system, InMagic Genie. With IE, I can toggle back and forth from insert to overwriting text with the INSERT button, but it has no effect in Firefox.

Firefox doesn't support overwrite and is always in insert mode.
