Hi,

How do i disable a option in a pulldown

This works in firefox

Code:

<select>
  <option></option>
  <option disabled></option>
  <option></option>
</select>

I don't think you can. This maybe possible in IE7 because they use a different way of rendering select boxes.
You have two alternatives, either ignore the click by storing the current position and checking in onchange to see if the click was on a valid option or by creating your own list box with DHTML.
