Hi!

If you not want directly to edit into the Text Box Try the following bolded words in the code given below

<input type=text value="Vijay" id="txt1" contenteditable=false />

All the Best

There is no such thing as "contenteditable".

This is a javascript question so I'm moving it there.

<input type=text value="Vijay" id="txt1" readonly  />

in html

OR

document.getElementById('txt1').setAttribute('readonly','true');

in javascript

Actually you should use

<input type="text" readonly="readonly">

Or using js you can

<input type="text" onclick=" if (!this.readOnly) { this.readOnly = 'readOnly' } else { this.readOnly = '' } ">
