How to disable/enable an input box with jQuery?



We can easily disable input box(textbox,textarea) using disable attribute to “disabled”.

$(‘elementname’).attr(‘disabled’,’disabled’);

To enable disabled element we need to remove “disabled” attribute from this element.

$(‘elementname’).removeAttr(‘disabled’);

Example

<html > <head>    <title>ed</title>       <script src="../../Scripts/jquery-1.4.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>       <script type="text/javascript">          $(document).ready(function () {             $('#btn1').click(function () {                $('input').attr('disabled', 'disabled');             });             $('#btn2').click(function () {                $('input').removeAttr('disabled');             });          });       </script>    </head> <body> <div> <input type="text" id="tt1" /><br />    <button type="button" id="btn1">Disable</button>    <button type="button" id="btn2">Enable</button> </div> </body> </html>
