Read Only Form

CraigJ

In many cases it's necessary to show the user the form, but not in an editable fashion. In my case I have many more fields in the data than are bound to the table.

Is there a way to make the entire form conditionally read only?

For example, if use X is a member of the read only group, I'd change the button to "display" or something in place of edit, and show the same form with all the fields disabled.

You could use disable() to disable all user input.

There is also the display plug-in which might be an option?
