Answer 5

By setting readonly attribute to either true or false is not going to work in most browsers, I have done it as below, when the mode of the page is "reload", I've not included "readonly" attribute.

@if(Model.Mode.Equals("edit")){
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => Model.Content.Data, new { id = "modEditor", @readonly = moduleEditModel.Content.ReadOnly, @style = "width:99%; height:360px;" })
}
@if (Model.Mode.Equals("reload")){
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => Model.Content.Data, new { id = "modEditor", @style = "width:99%; height:360px;" })}

Answer 6

<%= Html.TextBoxFor(m => Model.Events.Subscribed[i].Action, new { @readonly = true })%>
