Read only text Field

[ggrewe]

If I have the following code, how do I make SpecialInvitationAmount so that it is read only and cannot be changed by the form user?

<td width=&quot;64%&quot;><input type=&quot;checkbox&quot; name=&quot;SpecialInvitation&quot; value=&quot;1&quot; onclick=&quot;SpecialInvitationAmount.value=149.50&quot;>Special
Invitation Offer $149.50 (valid until November 30, 2001)</td>
<td width=&quot;12%&quot;>
<p align=&quot;center&quot;>&nbsp; </td>
<td width=&quot;12%&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;></td>

<td width=&quot;12%&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;><input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;SpecialInvitationAmount&quot; size=&quot;8&quot;></td>

Probably you already know that IE4 has a READONLY attribute for <INPUT TYPE=TEXT> fields. This is not available in Netscape.

How about using onChange in the text field to start a script that assigns the value 149.50 to document.form[0].SpecialInvitationAmount.value ? At least if the person does edit the field your script will change it back to the value you need.

For that matter, why put a field on the form at all if you know what the price is, show it but don't make a field for it. Or, put the value in a hidden field.

<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=SpecialInvitationAmount VALUE=149.50>

I would love to show just the value, but not make it a field. I do not know how to do that. They do not want me to hidden the fields, they want the user to see the dollar amounts.

Thanks.
