What is the correct readonly attribute syntax for input text elements?

问题

As Most, I am familiar with the readonly attribute for text input, But while reading code from other websites (a nasty habit of mine ) I saw more than one implementation for this attribute:

<input type="text" value="myvalue" class="class anotherclass" readonly >

and

<input type="text" value="myvalue" class="class anotherclass" readonly="readonly" >

and I have even seen

<input type="text" value="myvalue" class="class anotherclass" readonly="true" >

.. And I believe I saw even more, but can not recall the exact syntax now..

So, which one is the correct one that I should use?

回答1:

From w3:

readonly = "readonly" or "" (empty string) or empty - Specifies that element represents a control whose value is not meant to be edited.

So basically it's the same.

回答2:

HTML5 spec:

http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/forms.html#attr-input-readonly :

The readonly attribute is a boolean attribute

http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/infrastructure.html#boolean-attributes :

The presence of a boolean attribute on an element represents the true value, and the absence of the attribute represents the false value.

If the attribute is present, its value must either be the empty string or a value that is an ASCII case-insensitive match for the attribute's canonical name, with no leading or trailing whitespace.

Conclusion:

The following are valid, equivalent and true:

<input type="text" readonly />
<input type="text" readonly="" />
<input type="text" readonly="readonly" />
<input type="text" readonly="ReAdOnLy" />

The following are invalid:

<input type="text" readonly="0" />
<input type="text" readonly="1" />
<input type="text" readonly="false" />
<input type="text" readonly="true" />

The absence of the attribute is the only valid syntax for false:

<input type="text"/>

Recommendation

If you care about writing valid XHTML, use readonly="readonly", since <input readonly> is invalid and other alternatives are less readable. Else, just use <input readonly> as it is shorter.

回答3:

is should be

<input type="text" value="myvalue" class="class anotherclass" readonly="readonly" />
