I needed a way to display calculated, multiple, changing values
(numerical sums) as users interacted with the page, and do this
without going back to the server to load the page again.
What I finally settled on was <input type=button...> without an
"onClick" attribute (because the purpose of the buttons was only
for displaying values).
It works fine except they look and act like buttons. No big deal,
but is there a better way?

So you used client side scripting.

A button *without* an "onclick" attribute (or at least an onclick
property set by a script) won't do anything. Are you sure you don't
mean *with* an onclick attribute?

You want something that the user can press to achieve an effect.
I can't see what would be more appropriate than a button.

The need was for someplace/someway to display javascript calculated
values without going back to the server. Like I said, the purpose
of the buttons is only for displaying a value. The displayed values
change, based on the user doing stuff in multiple places elsewhere.
It works fine, but looks a little weird. I suppose a Java applet is
indicated.

<INPUT type='text'> ???
Or did I eat a little too much stuffing?

<input type=text name= ... readonly> to show it in a control; or use a

Good thought, except "readonly" wouldn't allow for the values to
to be changed on the client-side as the script responds to events.
The need is to display changing values based on user interaction.
I guess I'm stuck with type=button.
But, this blows me away: I couldn't even get <input type=text
readonly...> to work anyway, and grasping at a last straw I tried
<input type=readonly ...> and guess what, it worked. Browsers
ignore HTML that they don't know about, but there they were,
little readonly text areas. The docs say nothing about this that
I can find. I can't change their values though, so I'm still
stuck with do-nothing buttons to display values. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
