Hi, if you see HTML specification at http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.6, select has not readonly (just disabled, but you can't use it for submiut value). So proposition of Rafael, is the same solution that I use. But when you have several select in your JSP, it begin borring to manage it. So if you want you can see FormView project at http://formview.sourceforge.net/, which is a taglib which manage state (READ-ONLY,READ-WRITE,...) in your JSP, to render your inputs (eg : transform select into input hidden, without coding this case in your JSP).

You can choose to maintain the value from this select in a hidden field, that will be submitted with your page. I was used to use another approach, making the select enabled in the submit, but it was a great meal to hackers. 2006/11/1, Mississippi John Hurt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Help, I can make <html:text> readonly by setting readonly="true" which > works. > <html:select> has no readonly attribute, only a disabled.
