Question

I have the followng code:

var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName(\"input\");
for (var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++) {
inputs[i].disabled = bDisabled;         


        

Answer 1

function CheckDynamicValue(partialid, value) {

    var re = new RegExp(partialid, 'g');
    var elems = document.getElementsByTagName('*'), i = 0, el;
    while (el = elems[i++]) {
        if (el.id.match(re)) {
            el.disabled = value;
        }
    }
}
