I wouldn't call it cludgy... 'pragmatic' is the word that comes to mind :)
Big advantage of styling the input as regular text instead of completely replacing the HTML element is that all other behavior remains as expected. The field is still submitted with the form etc. -Stijn -----Original Message----- From: Chris Snyder [mailto:chris.sny...@biologos.org] Sent: zaterdag 1 maart 2014 17:54 To: Wicket users mailing list mailing list Subject: Re: Show textfield as plaintext when disabled? I also ended up going the panel route for this. An alternative - perhaps a bit cludgy - would be to style the input fields as plain text using CSS (remove the border & outline, alter the padding, etc.). -Chris On Sat, Mar 1, 2014 at 6:35 AM, Andrea Del Bene <an.delb...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi, l've tried to do a similar thing a couple of months ago but it was > very tricky and l ended up using a panel with two components (text > field and a label). > You can use methods oncomponenttag and onxomponenttagbody to > dynamically change the tag and the body depending on component status (view > or edit)... > Good luck :). > On Feb 28, 2014 8:34 PM, "Entropy" <blmulholl...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Is there a way to have my textfield show as plain text when in a > > readonly mode rather than as a disabled textbox? > > > > Backup question: I can imagine making a panel to do this...having a > > textfield and label and hiding whichever I didn't want, but I would > > want > my > > panel to bind to a textbox in the parent page and replace that tag > > (otherwise I would have two textboxes, right).
