OK, got it done in another way (I'm not sure if I was clear about what
I wanted).
Form id is formEntrega.
Event.observe(window, 'load', function() {
Event.observe('formEntrega', 'submit', function(event){
var selects = this.getElements();
for(var i=0; i < selects.length; i++){
if(selects[i].getValue() == 0){
selects[i].disable();
}
}
this.submit();
}
);
});
This works like a charm.
The only thing missing is some validation for a select element
(getElements() brings everything in the form, not only the selects),
but havent found how to do that.
