Would you be disabling the whole form or just certain fields.
If it is just certain fields remember you will have to submit the field values as hidden in the form inside an <@IF> that covers the same privilege set.
Or
You could show them different forms based on their privilege set and uses different updates form there.

how, 'bout using the user priviledge to determine whether it is a form field or just a presentation of the content of the field. If you use _javascript_ then you can be run around pretty easily.

What is the easiest, safest, most reliable way to disable editing of selected form fields based on privilege levels or other criteria.
I have used in the past, but was hoping to use disabled=true now. I find it displays the fields grayed out which is great, but doesn’t include them as arguments, which is not good.
What other solutions are there for always displaying the data but restricting edits on various fields without messing up the existing update action?
