Default How to make an uneditable multiline textbox

Is there are way to make a multiline textbox uneditable (i.e. enabled=false) but without the text being grayed out. I want people to be able to read the text but not have to read fuzzy grey letters. I know I could use a label but I want the user to be able to scroll so the text only takes up a small amount of space.

Thanks!

Hmm... experiment with readonly=true, maybe?

Let me know if this works.

It'll take me a little while to get to it but I'll let you know how it works when I try it.
