I've read through the other topics on this here and can't figure out how to do it in ASP.

Walter posted a technique for modifying <A> controls by injecting a {Label} inside the <a> but this won't work in a control. And I can't figure out how to do it by modifying the 'Value' (which makes sense.)

So I've been doing it in JS.

Is it doable -just- in ASP. I'm trying like crazy to do as little in JS as possible so that when problems occur I have fewer places to troubleshoot.

TIA,

---JC

PS: This is -definitely- an 'Action' that should be -standard- with CCS.

In the CCS helpfile search term: disabled
Second topic is HTML Template variable (ASP)
In the online docs : http://docs.codecharge.com/studio3/html/Components/Meth...SetVar.html?toc

The SetVar is what you need.

Quote :
Examples
The example below shows an extract from an HTML template file with a template variable called user_state.
	<input name="user" {user_state}> 
The following programming code uses the SetVar method of the HTMLTemplate object to set the value of the user_state template variable. When the page is rendered for the browser, the user_state template variable will be replaced by the value disabled and as a result of this, the input control will appear disabled.
	HTMLTemplate.SetVar "@user_state","disabled"

Fabulous as per usual. I've concluded that you and I search differently. I confess I've grown to -loathe- the CCS OLH and I usually go to this forum to search first.

Clearly, I have it backwards.

It's that religious thing. Because I write Windows apps and literally every day I 'disable' or make 'readonly' or otherwise modify controls, I just -assume- that there is a little contraption to change all this stuff that is PROMINENTLY DISPLAYED in the CCS IDE.

Your patience is greatly appreciated. If nothing else, you're helping to build what (at least to -me-) is a valuable on-line reference for others. And I'm sure that gives you a real warm glow.

Thanks Again,

---RSM
