Definition and Usage

The disabled attribute can be set to keep a user from selecting from the option group until some other condition has been met (like selecting a checkbox, etc.). Then, a JavaScript is required to remove the disabled value, and make the option group selectable.
Browser Support
The disabled attribute is supported by all major browsers, except Internet Explorer.Note: Not supported in Safari 2.0 or earlier versions. Supported in IE 8 (beta) and newer versions.
