Protected form field

[PeteM]

Is it possible to create a protected form field in HTML? That is a field that shows an initial value but does not allow the user to overwrite the value?

Thanks, Pete

I assume you want to submit this data with the form?

if so then the only thing I can think of is to display it normally and then use a hidden field to submit it.

Ah, found the answer....

<input name="#*$!xx" class="post" type="text" value="hello" readonly="true">
