disabled form objects

[secretsquirrel]

hi guys,

i have a form which contains a disabled field.

when the form is submitted, will the disabled field submit a value or will it simply be ignored?

if it doesn't automatically submit a value, is there anyway it can be forced to?

or will i have to use a hidden field?

thanks in advance...

A disabled field will not submit a value.

If it's a text field, you can use READONLY. This will keep the field from being edited but will still submit a value:

<INPUT NAME=&quot;Name&quot; VALUE=&quot;12345&quot; READONLY>

Double check this, though. I'm not sure how this works with Netscape.
