[SOLVED] radio "unlock/lock"

[seventheyejosh]

Hello All,

 

i was just wondering what the quickest most unobtrusive way would be to lock/ unlock a text input and a drop down based on a radio button.

 

basically its like this

 

O ||dropdown||

 

O ||textbox||

 

so if someone checks one or the other it'll grey one or the other out. or it could hide it or show it. right now i have it toggle a div underneath to show one or the other like so

 

choose:  O -option A-    O -Option B-

 

<div>

  ||Drop Down||

</div>

 

<div>

  ||TextBox||

</div>

 

Which works fine, but isnt very stream lined.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Also I'm writing this in php. Thanks

awesome thanks!

 

1 more question tho... ....

 

what is the command to get the name of a radio?

 

will document.getElementById work? or do i have to add .value? and will that work? or no?

 

Thanks Much!
