Okay, I tried it. I also found an example online, and it looks like this is the fault of the browser on my braille notetaker; it seems to not honor the reaonly attribute. Thanks for the help, though.
Have a great day, Alex

Hi all,In a basic html form, how do I protect an input of type "text? I
have
tried <input type="input" readonly name=..." but with no luck,
and I
have moved the "readonly" keyword around and even tried"readonly="true"" but all with no luck. I am using a
Braillenote. Am I
doing it wrong, or am I getting it right but my notetaker is not interpreting the readonly keyword?
