Drop-down list freeze

[wwworg]

Hey guys

I have a dropdown list in HTML

How can I freeze that drop-down list so that the user cannot change (meaning cannot select any other item from the list). I have used the disabled "true", but this is causing a little problem for me. So I was wondering maybe anyone knows about any other way to freeze a drop-down list in HTML

Thanks

I believe the correct syntax for disabling a field is to set the disabled attribute like so:

<input type="button" disabled="disabled" name="button" value="button" />

Thanks for your reply

It is the same thing

disabled = "true" or disabled = "disabled". It does the same thing. Also it is not an input type, its a select

<select class="tx" name="applstatus" <%  if (empRole == false) { %>
		disabled = "disabled" <% } %> >
	}
	<%= mad.getApplStatusOptions() %>
	</select>

Just wondering if there is any other way to restrict the user to edit the list

Let me know if u have any ideas

Thanks

What exactly is the problem you are having? Is the list NOT disabled, despite putting disabled="disabled" in the tag?
