Hi, 

 

I have a field that I want to disable using JavaScript (meaning that the user can't click on the checkbox)

I tried using this

NWF$("#" + varIT).attr("disabled", true);

or this

NWF$("#" + varIT).prop("readonly", true);

but both didn't work.

 

What am I doing wrong?

    Hi,

     

    not a jquery pro so there might be a better solution, but this works for me:

    NWF$("#" + varIT + " input[type=radio]").attr("disabled", "disabled")

    I noticed the whole "Choice" control is rendered as an html table containing radio inputs, so I disabled them after noticing that disabling the table didn´t do the trick
