You can use the 'disabled' or 'readonly' properties
<input name="someField" value="Can't change me!" readonly> 
<input name="someField" value="Can't change me!" disabled> 
The differences are:
- Disabled works on all form elements, readonly only works on text-
based ones. 
- Disabled doesn't submit the values, and readonly does. 
These proprties you can change through code as well.
