Seems to me that this violates good UI design. I mean, what purpose does a Select Box have if you can't select anything. If I rememember my UI theory correctly, the selections should be displayed in a form such as static text that makes it clear that they aren't changeable.
I might use a table (single column to mimic the layout of the Select) and display static text in it for the selected items. :-> -----Original Message----- :-> From: Srinivas Kusunam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] :-> Sent: Friday, February 20, 2004 10:11 AM :-> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] :-> Subject: Re: How to make readonly in Select Box :-> :-> :-> :-> We are achieving the same using disabled property.
