Browser Support

The disabled attribute is supported in Firefox and Opera.

Definition and Usage

The disabled attribute is a boolean attribute.

When present, it specifies that a group of related form elements (a fieldset) should be disabled.

A disabled fieldset is unusable and un-clickable.

The disabled attribute can be set to keep a user from using the fields until some other condition has been met (like selecting a checkbox, etc.). Then, a JavaScript could remove the disabled value, and make the fieldset usable.

Differences Between HTML 4.01 and HTML5

The disabled attribute is new for the <fieldset> tag in HTML5.

Syntax

<fieldset disabled="disabled">

Note: The disabled attribute is a boolean attribute, and can be set in the following ways:

  • <fieldset disabled>
  • <fieldset disabled="disabled">
  • <fieldset disabled="">
