IHTMLInputElement::get_readOnly Method

---

Retrieves the value that indicates whether the element's contents are read-only, meaning that the user cannot enter or edit text in the control.

Syntax

HRESULT get_readOnly(
    VARIANT_BOOL *p 
);

Parameters

p

Address of a VARIANT Boolean structure that receives VARIANT_TRUE if the element is read-only, or VARIANT_FALSE if not. The default value for this property is VARIANT_FALSE.

Return Value

Returns S_OK if successful, or an error code otherwise.

Remarks

This is different than disabled. Read-only still allows the element to receive the focus, while disabled does not.

---

Parameters

v

VARIANT Boolean structure that specifies the value of the read-only flag. VARIANT_TRUE sets the element to read-only; VARIANT_FALSE does not. The default value for this property is VARIANT_FALSE.

Return Value

Returns S_OK if successful, or an error code otherwise.

Remarks

This is different than disabled. Read-only still allows the element to receive the focus, while disabled does not.
