 <input readonly type="checkbox"> allows one to still check and uncheck the box.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:




Expected Results:  
would be nice if it wasn't possible to click on the box anymore and uncheck
things. i'm not sure if this is possible to do on OSX though. of course disabled
does pretty much the same thing though...so maybe readonly==disabled in the case
of type="checkbox"?
Does that actualkly work in Mozilla ?
Summary: <input readonly type="checkbox"> no worko → <input readonly type="checkbox"> no worko

In HTML, "readonly" only applies to some types of <input> elements and
checkboxes are not among those.

The misconception that "readonly" does not apply to checkboxes is based a
misreading of a DTD comment. See the rest of the discussion at bug 88512.
