Read only controls in static mode

[mbojja]

Hi guys - To not show the combo box in read only mode I used the
xxf:readonly-appearance="static" as in the below sample form. But I see no
change when the form is published and opened

Expectation : Combo box shown as a grayed text box
Actual : Combo box grayed out

Hi Manish,

When using Form Runner, you can't manually add
`xxf:readonly-appearance="static"`. However, using the static-readonly
appearance is exactly what the view page does. Would you be able to point
users to the view page, instead of the edit page, for your form?

Hi Manish,

Did you get a chance to try using the view page for this? If so, is it
working for you?
