asp_web_howto thread: how to disable a textfield in netscape


Message #1 by padolux@y... on Sat, 25 Nov 2000 09:53:42 -0000
the "disabled" property works only with internet explorer i think.

i need to make a textfield disabled and visible using netscape navigator.

I don't know if the disabled property works or not in Netscape but, if you

know which form fields you want disabled why don't you simply write the

current field values out as plain HTML - that way they will be visible but

can't be changed - same as disabled.



You could probably use bgcolor, etc. styles to make it still look like a

disabled input form field if you like. If you need to carry the field

value forward into subsequent pages you could add a hidden form field.



This approach should work for both IE and Netscape, so you shouldn't need

to do anything different.
