Question

How would you code a if conditional check in dojo?

if(!dojo.query("#idOfHhtmlField").attr("disabled") == true)
    { 
      //do something
    } 

Here I am trying to compare if #idOfHhtmlField‘s disabled attribute is set to true or not, but it doesnt seem to be working for me.

Answer 1

i tested this html in dojo,here:

<button id="test0" disabled>button0</button>
<button id="test1" disabled="disabled">button1</button>
<button id="test2" disabled="false">button2</button>
<div id="test3" disabled>div0</div>
<div id="test4" disabled="disabled">div1</div>
<div id="test5" disabled="false">div2</div>

since you can set div’s disabled in ie8, so it returns all true.
but in chrome only the buttons return true.
you should check if #idOfHhtmlField is a form element .

update

i suggest you detect disabled this way,because browsers do not need its value:

if(dojo.hasAttr("id",'disabled')){
        //alert(123)
}

i know little about dojo , because dojo.query().attr() returns an object,it is weired!
and here is the official guide.
