Can I use readonly or disabled attributes of text boxes (input type="text") on NN4 ?

Unfortunately, Netscape 4 does not support the readonly or disabled 
attributes of form elements. You can work around these limitations.
For text fields that will be permanently disabled or readonly, the 
obvious thing to do is to display the information outside of a text 
field in a <P> paragraph tag.
For fields that need to change state dynamically, you can use the 
onFocus event, the blur method and scripting to block typing and editing 
of the fields.
