Hi there, 
I am working with DbForms 1.1.3. The readOnly attribute of db:textFields
seems to use Javascript this.blur() to get rid of the visible focus.
However, you can still get an (invisible) focus into that field with the
tabulator key and then start typing. What makes things problematic is that
the information sent back to the server (the field's value) is actually
being committed into the database instead of ignoring the changes to this
"readOnly" field (provided the user has update access to that table). I am
not sure if there is an easy way to keep the server from doing this. But
then, the whole thing maybe isn't really critical if you know it exists and
use db:label where you badly want the users not to update information via
this specific field. 

Regards
