Re: disabling form element

[Mark Lowe <ma...@talk21.com>]

//I prefer this way of drilling through the DOM.

But document.forms[0].remarks should be fine as well.

document.forms[0].elements['remarks'].disabled = true;

the onchange event doesn't require the javascript: i only use this when 
I'm calling functions from a href.

onchange="change()"
