Still not resolved. Need expert help
I have a asp form where among others there are few text boxes and one check
box. The checkbox is to indicate whether the entry is final. The checkbox is attahced to a field in table of type yes/no. After saving the documents,the form is refreshed. At this point, if the checkbox has been saved with checked, it shows unchecked, if it has been saved unchecked it shows unchecked. Here, if the checkbox shows checked, I want to disable (or lock) all the text boxes and the checkbox itself which will prevent further entry. Can this be done with asp? Any suggestion/help is highly appeciated. Previous postings did not help to get this resolved. Regards. You will have to get the value of the checkbox when the page loads. I would
use a simple string value to hold a " disabled " or " " text string. Then in ALL of your controls do a <input..... <%= YourValue %> ...> Show quote "Jack" <J***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:246BCFBD-9696-48A5-91C6-CD713E3B3129@microsoft.com... >I have a asp form where among others there are few text boxes and one check > box.

Instead of disabled, I had
to change the properties to readonly. With the texts and the checkbox being disabled, the values are not been passed to the sql processing and database saving asp page. However, with readonly attribute, this problem does not arise. Only one problem still exists. That is, with the checkbox, the readonly property did not work. The disbled property cannot be applied due to the reasons explained above. Do you have any idea, how to make the checkbox 'useless' i.e. users will not be able to click and uncheck the checkbox now. I am yet to come up with an idea. Any thoughts. Regards.

add an onClick() so that if it was checked and someone clicked it, it automatically, re-checked itself.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" > function dont_touch(form) { if (form.checked) { form.checked = false } else { form.checked = true } } </SCRIPT> Then put this inside the checkbox tags onClick='dont_touch(this)' It's javascript not asp but sounds like what you want.

Mike, your code
just works fine. Though my intention was to use asp to find this solution, I could not come up with one. Not sure it can be done so. Anyhow, the Javascript solved the lingering issue. Thanks again.

Regards. show plain text to let the user know they checked (or did not check) before. Or you could use the disabled attribute and some CSS to make it not look disabled (not sure on that one, check with a CSS group to see if that's possible).
