You can use button as well. Here an example of both. https://jsfiddle.net/gbymxfkL/ function Enablecontrols() { document.getElementById( 'fname' ).disabled = false ; } function disableControls() { document.getElementById( 'fname' ).disabled = true ; } function enableControlsSubmit() { document.getElementById( 'fname' ).disabled = false ; return false ; } function disableControlsSubmit() { document.getElementById( 'fname' ).disabled = true ; return false ; } First name: input type = "text" id = "fname" disabled > br > br > input type = "button" value = "Enable Textbox" onclick = "Enablecontrols()" > input type = "button" value = "Disable Textbox" onclick = "disableControls()" > br > br > input type = "submit" value = "Enable Textbox - Submit button" onclick = "return enableControlsSubmit()" > input type = "submit" value = "Disable Textbox - Submit button" onclick = "return disableControlsSubmit()" >
