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
