Detect text entry in text field box

[fifo85]

Hi,

Can anyone help me here, i am trying to detect if text is being typed in my text field.
Basically what i want to do is :-
If text is typed in my text fieid box then i want to grey out my drop down list box.
Hence how do i take action of text being typed in my text field?

Thanks

Use the 'onKeyDown' event.

Actually, works better using onKeyUp:

<form action="#" method="get">
<input type="text" onKeyUp="this.form.test.disabled=this.value!=''">
<select name="test">
<option>One</option>
<option>Two</option>
</select>
</form>
