In general, it''s better to either leave the control enabled or use static text. And of course, don''t rely on a disabled control to prevent users from changing things. A malicious user could send a specially crafted request to your application that would edit a "disabled" parameter...> FredBest, -- Marnen Laibow-Koser http://www.marnen.org marnen-sbuyVjPbboAdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
