When you say "JS" books, do you mean "Javascript" ?? M$oft has their OWN
spec called JScript which is what IE uses. Perhaps you could find this
READONLY attribute in some JScript documentation.
I would handle it as another person suggested, put an "onclick=blur()" on
the input fields that you don't want edited by a user. This keeps them from
typing there and allows you to update the values programatically
