READONLY attribute

If I have a readonly object, is there a way to find out later if it is readonly? There isn't a isReadOnly() function like there is a isDisabled() function.

I'm presuming you are talking javascript?Check the property readOnly directly - it doesn't have a method on it.If you aren't talking javascript what sort of object are you talking about?

an html object, such as a text input...I've tried checking the value of (theObject).READONLY, but it's always undefined.I got by by setting the alt value to "readonly" and checking that. However, I feel this is bad coding because its not what the alt is meant for.

javascript is case sensitiverather than (theObject).READONLY, try (theObject).readOnly
