Description Cynthia Shelly 2011-08-03 01:41:44 UTC
Thereadonly attribute can also in some cases (e.g. for the date state, but not the checkbox state) make aninput element immutable.  

Please specify all cases where the readonly attribute makes the element immutable.  Examples are a good start, but a complete table would be much better.
