How to generate readonly attribute correctly?

Hello

I have a DataGrid object in my ASP.NET page that has the following template
column. When I put the "readonly" attribute in the INPUT tag, it generates
readonly="".

<asp:TemplateCo lumn HeaderText="Kg Price" HeaderStyle-Width="5%">
<ItemTemplate>< INPUT class="ep" id=kf readOnly value='<%#
DataBinder.Eval (Container, "DataItem.KgFee ") %>' name=kf
runat="server"> </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateCol umn>
As there is a lot of rows in the DataGrid, I want to remove three unneeded
attributes:
1- I want to remove the [=""] from the end of generated "readonly" attribute
in the page.
2- Is it possible to make CSS codes for ReadOnly attribute?
3- Is it possible to remove the type="text" part of the INPUT tag or move it
to the CSS code?

2. No, not in standard CSS. But you can make a simple javascript that will
find all inputs that need to be readonly and set their readOnly property to
true.

3. Absolutely no.

Just wandering, may be you could use labels or literal content instead of
readonly textboxes?

The page has some controls on the text and use it for some calculations. Is
it possible to get the value of some non INPUT tags such as the <td>my
integer value</td>?

I am using some JavaScript code like the following:

function kp()
{
var number=document .activeElement. id.substr(j.ind ex,k);

var ctl = 'gd__ctl' + number + '_kf';
var myValue = Form1.all.named Item(ctl);

//do some manipulation with myValue.
...

}

Yes, instead of getting a reference to the textbox, you can get a reference
to the <tdand use it's innerText property. In this case you might not need
an item template in the first case. Just make a BoundColumn bound to KgFee.
The values will go straight inside the <td>s. The grid will render as a
table and you should be able to loop through the rows and cells collections
in javascript. Or you can consider replacing the grid with a repeater with
item template something like
<tr>
<td class="ep" id=kf name=kf >'<%# DataBinder.Eval (Container,
"DataItem.KgFee ") %>'</td>
</tr>

Hi all, I have one class including one collection. I use propertygrid to display and edit its properties. I'm trying to use reflection to change the status of one element to be readonly, for example the first element in this collection.The result is that all of elements changed. I guess the ReadOnly attribute is for class(or type), not for instance. How could i only change the status of one element of one collection? Thanks in advance.
