Comment(by dangayle):

 The "disabled" HTML form attribute exists exactly for this, and should be
 a trivial bit of js to add. The disabled attribute is supported in all
 major browsers.

 [http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.12 W3C HTML 4.01 -
 17.12 Disabled and read-only controls]
   In contexts where user input is either undesirable or irrelevant, it is
 important to be able to disable a control or render it read-only. For
 example, one may want to disable a form's submit button until the user has
 entered some required data.

   Note. The only way to modify dynamically the value of the disabled
 attribute is through a script.
