Hey there,

Does anyone have a little tip for doing this if possible.

I have an input text field as part of a form which is automatically filled in from a php recordset query which is then posted into a new table.

Is there a way (easliy) to have that input field non editable - ie the data return cannot be altered by a user?

Any help would be great.

Thanks

you can either not write it into a form box, but just display the info instead.

or

you can use the 'disabled' keyword in your code of the textbox.

Dave,

you can either not write it into a form box, but just display the info instead.

this is needed because the text that is the echo php is required as data entry to the next form

or

you can use the 'disabled' keyword in your code of the textbox.

will this not disable submission to database?

regards

i only ever used the disable keyword once for a project, but from what i recall it just locked (greyed-out) the box, didnt stop it submitting data. That was on a small Access project, but i'm fairly certain it still allowed me to post articles.

doesn't hurt to try
