revision:
When present, it specifies that the element should be disabled. A disabled element is unusable. The disabled attribute can be set to keep a user from using the element until some other condition has been met (like selecting a checkbox, etc.). Then, a JavaScript could remove the disabled value, and make the element usable again.
The disabled attribute can be used on the following elements: <button>, <fieldset>, <input>, <optgroup>, <option>, <select>, <textarea>.
<element disabled></element>
Disabled <input> elements in a form will not be submitted! The disabled attribute is usually drawn with grayed-out text. If the element is disabled, it does not respond to user actions, it cannot be focused.
