Greasemonkey script to remove text from form tags

[spamgirl]

I need a script that will remove the word "disabled" from form tags on a page. I can find ways to remove the entire tag, but that's not what I want. Any ideas? Thank you for your help!

you don’t need to remove it. since you’re in JS you can set the disabled property to false.

Thanks! I never thought of that... now to figure out how to do it :)

as a general tip, don’t confuse HTML and JS with each other (i.e. JS has it’s own representation of the page stored so trying to change HTML attributes directly is usually more complicated and does not necessarily does what you expect)

The problem now is that there are hundreds of form fields which have been disabled, so there's no way to specify each one and disable it... and they're all disabled in the HTML code itself, not javascript. They literally have "disabled" written in the HTML text field tag. That's why I wanted to just remove that word, I was hoping that would enable them. The other problem is that they're in an iframe, which Greasemonkey apparently can't touch.

I guess I'm just out of luck. Thanks for everyone's help!

that doesn’t mean you can’t enable them all in JS. the HTML source code is just the input for the browser to render the page, not more, not less.
