Definition and Usage
The disabled attribute specifies that an option should be disabled.
A disabled option is unusable and un-clickable.
The disabled attribute can be set to keep a user
from selecting the option until some other condition has been met (like selecting a
checkbox, etc.). Then, a JavaScript is required to remove the disabled value,
and make the option selectable.
Browser Support
The disabled attribute is supported in all major browsers, except Internet Explorer.
Note: Not supported in Safari 2.0 or earlier versions. Supported in IE
8 (beta) and newer versions.
