diabling the image with javascript

[spicymango]

Hi,

I have an image which submits the form

<td align="left"> <input name="edocsTradeConfirmations" type="image"  ALT="Search"   SRC="/images/b_Search.gif"  BORDER="0" HEIGHT="21" WIDTH="68" /></td>

Is is possible to disable the image using javascript?

Thanks

Suppose that input is the first element of the name edocsTradeConfirmations, you can put this line in some handler.
[tt] document.getElementsByName("edocsTradeConfirmations")[0].disabled=true;[/tt]

thanks a lot, your code works. I have a question I have only one element name "edocsTradeConfirmations". Not an array. In that case, shouldn't the following code should work , but it does not.

document.getElementsByName("edocsTradeConfirmations").disabled=true

This kind of thing is to progress by specification, not by imagination however it sounds plausible to one's habit of thinking. The method returns an array, and you've to deal with it as such.

sorry I got confused by

document.getElementById("mytext").disabled=true

where it return only one element, but we don't have anything like getElementByName we have getElementsByName which return collection ....... thanks
