To disable entry fields in design studio we used to use lawForm.getFormElement("text1").disabled=true.

However after our latest ESP upgrade (9.0.0.9), this no longer works.  After Lawson calls the OnAfterTransaction, it is somehow redrawing the screen & the text box is no longer being disabled.

Has anyone encountered this  & does anyone have a work around to disable a text field?

Thanks,
Shawn

If you go into the properties of the text field, you set it to Output Only and no one can enter data into it.

Unfortunately we want the user to enter data into the field in certain circumstances. For example, if the transaction is in a certain process level, then we want the field disabled. For all other process levels they can update the field.
