Unable to find a usable method for enabling/disabling a textbox in a FormTemplate

[Boris]

I've got textboxes within a RadGrid FormTemplate.  I am getting the handles for the textboxes with the methods illustrated here: http://www.telerik.com/community/code-library/aspnet-ajax/grid/accessing-server-controls-in-a-grid-template-on-the-client.aspx

I have the handles to the textboxs.  That is not in doubt.

The problem is, I cannot find any usable way to enable or disable them through Javascript.

Either nothing happens or the page crashes.

(And there seem to be a dozen different methods out there.  enable()/disable().  attr/removeattr, disabled =true/false,  etc.)

Hello Boris,

Please try the following approach:

function buttonClicked() {
    var editForm = $find("<%=RadGrid1.ClientID%>").get_masterTableView().get_editItems()[0].get_editFormItem();
    var textBox = $telerik.findElement(editForm, "TextBox1");
    if (textBox) {
        textBox.disabled = true;
    }
}

I hope this will prove helpful. Please give it a try and let me know about the result.

Regards,

Thanks for your response.  It worked. 

(Although I'm still a bit confused as to why I couldn't use the handles I got back from GetGridServerElement in the same manner.)
