The disabled attribute in HTML indicates whether the element is disabled or not. If this attribute is set, the element is disabled. 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. It is a boolean attribute.

Usage: It can be used on the following elements: <button>, <input>, <option>, <select>, <textarea>, <fieldset>, <outgroup>, and <keygen>. 

Syntax:  

<tag disabled></tag>

Example: In this example we demonstrate the use of the disabled attribute in a <button> tag, rendering the “Click Me!” button unclickable and visually indicating it is disabled.

HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML disabled Attribute</title> </head> <body style="text-align:center"> <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1> <h2>HTML disabled Attribute</h2> <!--A disabled button--> <button type="button" disabled>Click Me!</button> </body> </html>

Output: 

button

<input>: When the disabled attribute is present, it specifies that the input is disabled. A disabled input is unusable and un-clickable.

Example: In this example shows the disabled attribute in an <input> field, making it uneditable. The input field displays “This input field is disabled” as a placeholder.

HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML disabled Attribute</title> </head> <body style="text-align:center"> <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1> <h2>HTML disabled Attribute</h2> <!--A disabled input--> <label>Input: <input type="text" name="value" value="This input field is disabled" disabled> </label> </body> </html>

Output: 

input

<option>: When the disabled attribute is present, it specifies that the option field is disabled. A disabled option is unusable and un-clickable.

Example: In this example we demonstrates the disabled attribute in a <select> dropdown, where the “Volvo” option is disabled, making it unselectable, while other car brands remain selectable.

HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML disabled Attribute</title> </head> <body style="text-align:center"> <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1> <h2>HTML disabled Attribute</h2> <!--A disabled input--> <p>Volvo is disabled.</p> <select> <option value="volvo" disabled>Volvo</option> <option value="saab">Saab</option> <option value="vw">VW</option> <option value="audi">Audi</option> </select><br> </body> </html>

Output: 

option

<select>: When the disabled attribute is present, it specifies that the select field is disabled. A disabled select is unusable and un-clickable.

Example: In this example shows a disabled <select> element where the entire dropdown menu is disabled, preventing the user from selecting any of the search algorithm options listed.

HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML disabled Attribute</title> </head> <body style="text-align:center"> <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1> <h2>HTML disabled Attribute</h2> <!--A disabled input--> <p>This select field is disabled.</p> <select disabled> <option value="binary">Binary Search</option> <option value="linear">Linear Search</option> <option value="interpolation"> Interpolation Search </option> </select> </body> </html>

Output: 

select

<textarea>: When the disabled attribute is present, it specifies that the textarea field is disabled. A disabled textarea is unusable and un-clickable.

Example: In this example we demonstrates a disabled <textarea> element, which prevents user interaction. The disabled attribute makes the textarea field uneditable, displaying the given content as read-only.

HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML disabled Attribute</title> </head> <body style="text-align:center"> <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1> <h2>HTML disabled Attribute</h2> <!--A disabled textarea--> <textarea disabled> This textarea field is disabled. </textarea> </body> </html>

Output: 

textarea

<fieldset>: When the disabled attribute is present, it specifies that the fieldset is disabled. A disabled fieldset is unusable and un-clickable.

Example: In this example showcases a disabled <fieldset> containing a text input. The disabled attribute prevents interaction with all elements inside the fieldset, making them uneditable.

HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML disabled Attribute</title> </head> <body style="text-align:center"> <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1> <h2>HTML disabled Attribute</h2> <!--A disabled fieldset--> <p>This field set is disabled.</p> <fieldset disabled> Name: <input type="text"><br> </fieldset> </body> </html>

Output: 

fieldset

<optgroup>: When the disabled attribute is present, it specifies that the optgroup is disabled. A disabled optgroup is unusable and un-clickable.

Example: In this example we demonstrates a disabled <optgroup> within a <select> dropdown. The disabled attribute renders all options under “German Cars” unselectable, preventing user interaction with those options.

HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>HTML disabled Attribute</title> </head> <body style="text-align:center"> <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1> <h2>HTML disabled Attribute</h2> <!--A disabled optgroup--> <select> <optgroup label="German Cars" disabled> <option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option> <option value="audi">Audi</option> </optgroup> </select> </body> </html>

Output: 

optgroup
