Hey,

is there a way to change the textcolor of an input field if the field is disabled? I know you can change the background color of the field, but the textcolor is always gray ... is there now way to change that color?
 
you can use the style property:

<input type=text style=&quot;text-colout: red;&quot;>

you can completely customise anything with this..

1. it has to be with javascript eg. document.form.elements....

2. It also doesn't work because the field is disabled ... or am I wrong?
 
sorry... there was a typo above... should read:
<input type=text style=&quot;text-color: red;&quot;>

This is not javascript, it is style sheets

 
yep I know that that was wrong :) but it still doesn't solve my problem ... but thanx anyway
 
<input type=&quot;text&quot; style=&quot;color: red&quot; onfocus=&quot;this.blur()&quot; value=&quot;some text&quot; />

 
it would be

document.forms[index].elements[index].style.color = 'red';

and no, it wont work if its disabled... atleast the text color wont change. but,

document.forms[index].elements[index].style.backgroundColor = 'red';
will work luciddream@subdimension.com
