Javascript: disabled vs. readonly!

Question

nowhereman · Answer

What I just noticed again was, that sometimes when you click 'Post' and the submission somehow fails (e.g. because of that video I tried to attach), the message is lost for you. That's particularly bad if you have typed a lot of text and formula. It is still shown in a greyed out field. But the problem is that I can't select the text inside there.
I guess that could be because you use a disabled form field. Better would be to mark it as readonly, because then the message could still be copied and posted again.
