Situation: The form submit button is at first disabled. Later, it needs to be enabled.
Problem: setAttribute doesn't work as intended.
Additional clarification: In theory, these two lines should work same:
document.addPage.akcija.disabled=false;
dojo.byId("akcija").setAttribute("disabled", false);
In practice, the first one works, the other doesn't. Here are console printouts:
document.addPage.akcija.disabled=false;
<input id="akcija" type="submit" value="Nastavi s prijavom" name="akcija">
dojo.byId("akcija").setAttribute("disabled", false);
<input id="akcija" type="submit" disabled="false" value="Nastavi s prijavom" name="akcija">
Ofc, i can use the first one, but i would still like to know how to do it consistently (with dojo.etc). Other reason why i'm curious is because of the explanation here:
http://dojotoolkit.org/book/dojo-book-0-9/part-2-dijit/form-validation-s...
Specificly, this line:
disabled - Boolean: Should this widget respond to user input? In markup, this is specified as "disabled='disabled'", or just "disabled". Use setAttribute("disabled", true/false) to change after creation time.
dijit.byId("akcija").setAttri
dijit.byId("akcija").setAttribute("disabled", true) -- i think is the only issue here.
dojo.byId == domNode
dijit.byId == widget ref
dijit.byId().domNode == widget's domNode

Tried that but it doesn't
Tried that but it doesn't work. As you can now see (sorry, didn't notice that the code got parsed :), i'm not dealing with widgets, just regular html elements.
perhaps dojo.attr()?
the dijit attribute setting / getting stuff uses dojo.attr() in most places, perhaps that will help:
where "something" is either "disbabled" or "", or maybe true/false ... I'd be curious the results.
You might have to access it directly, not using setAttribute.
...as in:
Not all DOMNode properties can be set using setAttribute (thank you, MS).
It works! :)
Thank you very much :)
