Only allow selection from select list when radio button clicked

[mukeshrasm]

Hi

I have a html in which there is two selection box and two radio button. Radio buttion is of array type.

What I want if user will click the radio button then only he/she be able to make selection from select list. Initially I tried to disble the selection control. And when user will click the radio then only it was enabled. but I faced problem that value is not passed to the next form of the select list. so I enable the select list now it is working. but I want selection made only possible when user clicks the radio button.

Instead of disabling the select element, set it to readonly.

Sorry for that!
I have given the html format of the page. I want selection made only possible if user selects first any of the radio buttion then he may able to select the from any select. Means If he clicks radio value having Static then User will select page from Static1 select if he checks radio with value Dynamic then he will select from Dynamic Select.

 html
<input type="radio" value="Static" name="Static"  />
<select name="Static1" id="select">
        <option>Select Static Page </option>
        <option>page 1</option>
<option>page 2 </option>
 
            </select>
<input type="radio" value="Static" name="Static"  />
<select name="Dynamic" id="select" ">
        <option>Select Static Page </option>
        <option>page 1</option>
<option>page 2 </option>
 
            </select>

Ignore this. I don't think the select element has a readOnly property.

What you can do is onsubmit re-enable the select elements.

I tried to reenble the select onsubmit but its value is not going next in php.

Actually option's value was empty. then I assign some value to it.

 
<select>
<option value="Page1">Page1</option>
</select>
