Answer 1

Did you mean you want to disable the text input field? (Thats what I can think). Try this:

<input type="text" disabled="true" />

What are you trying to accomplish?

Edit: Read only:

<input type="text" value="Some value" readonly="readonly" />

I think this is what you are looking for. Read only with no focus.

<input type="text" value="Some value" onfocus="this.blur()" readonly="readonly" />

Edit 3, Solving Tab Index problem:

Previous field: <input type="text" tabindex=1/>
Disabled field: <input type="text" value="Some value" onfocus="this.blur()" readonly="readonly" />
Next Field:     <input type="text" tabindex=2/>
