You can't do it with HTML in NN4, but there are some JavaScript hacks. By tradition, onfocus="this.blur();", but this makes keyboard navigation difficult. Alternatives include onchange/onsubmit events to set the content back to what it was, and timeouts to do same. If possible it's best to avoid the problem by not using form elements for immutable content, or not caring if they are changed. I don't know what your situation is though. -- Andrew Clover Technical Consultant 1VALUE.com AG
