disable grid in FireFox

[dchymko]

In FF the grid doesn't seem to 'grey out' like it does in IE. I successfully implemented the disable code as explained in:
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdenabledconventions.html and it disables the grid (and child controls) in both IE and FF.   I haven't found anything in the support forums or knowledge base about this.  Is this a known issue?  I'm using the WebBlue skin if that makes a difference.

Hi Daryl,

Thank you for your interest in our products.

As it is described in the help topic itself, this is expected behavior - Gecko-based browsers does not recognize disabled="disabled" attribute for scrollable divs and the scrolling option is displayed under IE browsers only.

What we did to get around this issue is to show an ajax loading panel over the grid when we want to disable it. 
http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/ajxshowhideloadingpanel.html

The loading panel:

<telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel ID="rlpDisabledGrid" runat="server" Transparency="30">
    <div align="center" style="background-color: White; height: 100%;"></div>
</telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel>

The javascript to disable/enable the grid:

var gridPanel = null;
function _DisableGrid(inDisabled) {
    if (inDisabled) {
        gridPanel = $find("<%=rlpDisabledGrid.ClientID %>");
        gridPanel.show("<%=rgAvailableCodes.ClientID %>");
    }
    else {
        if (gridPanel != null) {
            gridPanel.hide("<%=rgAvailableCodes.ClientID %>");
            gridPanel = null;
        }
    }
}
