In one of my previous project, we had to maintain readonly column in sharepoint list in edit form. How to achieve this?
There are many ways to implement readonly column.
1.Powershell Script to make sharepoint columns as read only
2. Using SharePoint Designer
3.Using jquery in Content Query Web Part.
In this blog, we will implement this using SharePoint Designer. Add the below piece of javascript code in the Edit Form of the Custom List.
<script type=”text/javascript”>
function SetReadOnlycolumn()
{
var elements=document.getElementById(’your text field column name’);
elements.readOnly=true;
}
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push(“SetReadOnlycolumn()”);
</script>
Happy SharePointing:-)
