HTML | disabled Attribute
The disabled attribute in HTML indicates whether the element is disabled or not. If this attribute is set, the element is disabled. The disabled attribute is usually drawn with grayed-out text. If the element is disabled, it does not respond to user actions, it cannot be focused. It is a boolean attribute.
Usage: It can be used on the following elements: <button>, <input>, <option>, <select>, <textarea>, <feildset> and <optgroup>.
Syntax:
<tag disabled></tag>
-
<button>: When the disabled attribute is present, it specifies that the button is disabled. A disabled button is unusable and un-clickable.
