Jamie:
have it disabled as it renders (ie: pre-set in the code) and use an onClick
(onSelected for list boxes, etc) to enable it.
example: clicking in the textbox will enable the button
<form name="theForm" action="" method="get"><input name="theText" type="text"
value="theValue" onClick="turnMeOn(theForm.theButton)">
<input name="theButton" type="button" disabled="true" value="theValue" >
</form
using simple JS like this does all the hard work
<script language="JavaScript">
function turnMeOn(element){
element.disabled = false
}
</script>
cheers

Subject: [cfaussie] disable form elements
hi,
I know its not cf but i really need help
I have a form which has three questions
1 MOT = checkbox = yes, checkbox = no
motday - motmonth - motyear
2 Tax = checkbox = yes, checkbox = no
taxday - taxmonth - taxyear
3 Warranty = checkbox = yes, checkbox = no
Warday - Warmonth - Waryear
basically waht i need is for the date selectores to all be set to disabled
when the form loads. Then if a user clicks on the yes checkbox, the dates
for that qustion enable.
i have found many scripts to do this with single elements, but not to
unlock three form elements.
Ideally what i need is a function whcih can be passed x amounts of for
elements, then loop through it and dsable, enable the form elements passed
I have spent ages trying to do it myself but i have only used js a couple
of times!
cheers in advance
jamo
