Visual InterDev

Enabled Property

      Applies To

When set to True, the user interface element is available for editing, when false the object cannot be manipulated by the user.

Remarks

When the scripting platform is set to client (Microsoft^® Internet Explorer 4.0 DHTML) and the Enabled property is set to False, Microsoft^® Visual InterDev™ sets the <INPUT> tag's DISABLED attribute to True:

<INPUT TYPE="Checkbox" NAME="Checkbox1" VALUE="1" DISABLED=true >

In standard HTML, the <INPUT> tag does not support a DISABLED attribute. Therefore, when the scripting platform is set to server (ASP), Visual InterDev manipulates the HTML in order to mimic the result of the DISABLED attribute.

This property is mapped to the Enabled box on the General tab for the following dialog boxes: Checkbox Properties, Listbox Properties, OptionGroup Properties, Textbox Properties.
