I was thinking of making a cross browser text box. The MS textbox doesn't
support the readonly or enabled attribute for Netscape 4 browsers.

This can be simulated by adding an onfocus="blur;" attribute.

I've made some dinky server controls. But I haven't seen any examples on
how I could inherit the textbox and then add/remove this attribute whenever
the readonly or enabled property is set or changed in the parent
object. Would also be nice to check to see if the user has already set
something to the onfocus, so I don't overwrite it.

p.s., other than trial and error is there anyway to know whether the
browser supports the enabled/readonly attributes for input buttons?

The only pain about allways adding it is, users can't copy from the text
box.

Hey Chuck,

maybe something like

public class ChuckBox : System.UI.WebControls.TextBox
{
protected override onPreRender(object src, EventArgs e)
{
if(this.readonly==true || this.enabled==false)
{
//TODO - ensure onfocus does not already have
stuff in it.
this.attributes["onfocus"] = "this.blur();"
}
}
}

How many people are still using crappy netscape?
