Is it possible to disable an edit box and the submit button associated with it in a form? If so how do you do it? and can it just be toggled on and off?
Thanks!

Yep, through the 'disabled' attribute and, yep.
//This function toggles the 'disabled' attribute of the text box
<!-- Here is how you specify a form element to be disabled from the start -->
The 'disabled' attribute can be specified for all form elements.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<script>
Code:
function doToggle(){
document.all.wax.disabled = !document.all.wax.disabled;
if(document.all.wax.disabled){
document.all.toggle.value = 'Wax On';
}
else{
document.all.toggle.value = 'Wax Off';
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="">
Code:
<input name="wax" value="Wax" type="text" disabled="true">
<input name="toggle" type="button" value="Wax On" onClick="doToggle()">
</form>
</body>
</html>The 'disabled' attribute can be specified for all form elements.
