Printable version with Radio buttons/Check Boxes

[weezerboy]

I have a form that works very well that has check boxes and radio buttons.

All is well with the form.

But now I need to creat a printable version of the form after the user completes it.

The problem is when the user gets to the printable version they can still click the radio buttons/check boxes.
( I know it doesnt write to the db)

How can I create this printable version so that the radio buttons/check boxes cannot be changed?

you could set them to disabled = true (might have to do some styling tho)
if you're ok with relying on JS you could set onclick="return false;" for each.

I have put

<input name = "var1" onClick="return false" etc ..........>

on all of my radio buttons

But that only kind of disables them.;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;.if i click on an uncheked radio button it unchecks the button that was selected leaving all of the radio buttons blank

2 questions
Do I have to put something in the head tags re the onClick="return false"

Do I have to put something different on the selected button instead of onClick="return false"

Since this is a print-only page, you might consider making images of your radio buttons and check boxes. Two radio buttons, one checked and the other unchecked; same thing for the check boxes.

The code below will should give you the idea.
