Checkbox with Input Field

[demarcao]

Hello,

I need to figure out how to do the following:
When someone selects a particular checkbox an input field right next to it become editable. Otherwise the input field is readonly.

Any pointers would be great,!

html code might golike this...

<input type="checkbox" name="myBox">
<input type="text" onFocus="checkTheBox()">


and the js something like this...

function checkTheBox() {
if(!document.forms[0].myBox.checked) {
alert("Unable to edit");
document.forms[0].myBox.focus();
}

This could be modified to enable/disable the text field as well.

hmm, I get an object expected error. Does the javascript go in the head section? that's the way I have it.

onclick="t1.readOnly=!this.checked;t1.focus()">
<input type="text" name="t1" readonly="readonly">
