Displaying the result in a html label.(is it possible?)

[ajos]

This may be very dumb question, but still...I am displaying a value in a input tag with the value shown as readonly...

<input type=text size=18 maxlength=50 name="company" value=<%=companyCode %> readonly>

where <%=companyCode%> is the result that is being displayed. Can i display the result in a html label or something similar which is not editable/non-readonly(if i can say that). Just displaying the text. The result of the companyCode is retrieved in my class and in a sql query. So the value will be passed around across class/jsp page. appreciate any help.

regards,

ajos.

You can use JavaScript to make the field either ReadOnly or Disabled. Sample

<script type="text/javascript">
function makeReadOnly()
{
document.getElementById("text1").readOnly=true;
}
function disableField()
  {
  document.getElementById("text1").disabled=true
  }
</script>
