“Disabled” option for choiceField - Django

Question

I having trouble with a simple question : How to have some \"disabled\" field in a dropdown menu generated via a modelForm and choiceFied in the django Framework ?

Answer 1

You can create Choices as mentioned by Bryan like this. In the below options Root 1, Root 2 are automatically disabled and they will look like Group Options

CHOICES = (
  ('-- Root 1--', 
      (
        ('ELT1', 'ELT1'),
        ('ELT2', 'ELT2'),
        ('ELT3', 'ELT3'),
      )
   ),
  ('-- Root 2--', 
      (
        ('ELT3', 'ELT3'),
        ('ELT4', 'ELT4'),
      )
  ),
)

The above option will display like this. In the below image, Root 1 and Root 2 are not selectable.

Hope this will clear your problem
