how can u disable a text field

[hemuravi]

Hi,

I am new to html and javascript...my html page has some text fields.once the user enters the fields and presses submit,the next page should have the entered text fields containing data to be disabled,so that the user can no longer modify them and the page should have additional fields...can u tell me some way to do this...an example demonstrating the above would be helpful.hope somebody could guide me to some in depth javascript resources on web.

Regards,
Hemu

Something like this:

document.getElementById("textFieldId&quot.dissabled="on";

Or... it might be ="true" (sorry, didn't check)

I prefer to use ID= instead of of NAME= for these kinds of tasks because it just seems infinately more reliable.

yes, use "true" or "disabled"

and disabled has one "s":

document.getElementById("textFieldId&quot.disabled="disabled";
