disabled
The disabled boolean attribute makes a form control non-interactive and excludes it from form submission.
Syntax
disabledExamples
<button disabled>Submitting...</button>
<fieldset disabled>
<input name="a">
</fieldset>
Output
Renders a greyed-out, unclickable button and disables every control inside the fieldset.
Notes
A boolean attribute; presence alone enables it. Disabled controls are skipped in tab order and not submitted. Disabling a <fieldset> disables all descendants. Use aria-disabled when you need a focusable but inert control.
