Hi!
You can use the following code:
<input type=3D"text" name=3D"asdf" id=3D"asdf" value=3D"asdf" size=3D"5"
maxlength=3D"5" readonly>
BUT!! It only works in HTML 4+. Archaic browsers may be able to edit
it.
Thanks,

I just tried that one using the following code in IE 5.5:
<input type=3D"text" name=3D"Page" id=3D"Page" value=3D"5" size=3D"1"
maxlength=3D"3" onfocus=3D"blur">
And it did not work for me.

How about using "disabled" in the input tag like this?
<input type="text" name="Page" id="Page" value="5" size="1" disabled>

If you are displaying the results from a dbase example <input type=text
name=box value="<%=rs("info")%">
then providing you are not asking them to submit info at the end of that
form it will make no difference if they try to change the cata in the text
box as it will have no effect.
If however the data displayed is included in a form where you are asking
them to fill data in and there is a submit button then do not display the
data in a text box. Just write the data to the screen in a table. Example
<tr>
<td>Your IP is <%request.servervariables("REMOTE_HOST") %> "This is screen
display"
</td>
<td><Input type=text name=name>This is a box they can fill info in
</td>
</tr>
Failing that then declare a variable for each box that you do not wish them
to edit at the begining of the page. than when they submit the form send it
to a check page then when the fields are requested you tell it there that
request("name") = VarName.
Example
VarName = Patrick
So even if they do enter a different value in the box it will default back
to the VarName value

Avoid browser specific code and as a rule of thumb. You can allow your
user's to have a field day with your text boxes then "do one on 'em" as soon
as they click "submit" - all by submitting the proper values using hidden
fields.
