Hi all,

I was trying to assign a default value to the owner field and then to disable it

so i have tried the following code to disable the field

crmForm.all.ownerid.Disabled=true;

but after doing the field has been disabled but the owner name is still accessible which means that the user data still accessible

the question is:

how to completly disable the field so that no body can click on the user name to access the data

any help will be appreciated,

thanks in advance :)

function DisableLookupLinks(lookupFieldName) {
 var lookupParentNode = document.getElementById(lookupFieldName + "_d");
 var lookupSpanNodes = lookupParentNode.getElementsByTagName("SPAN");

 for (var spanIndex = 0; spanIndex < lookupSpanNodes.length; spanIndex ++) {
  var currentSpan = lookupSpanNodes[spanIndex];
  
  currentSpan.onclick = function() {};
 }
}

To disable a field's Lookup links, pass the field's schema name into the function. For example, for the "Customer" field on a Case:

DisableLookupLinks("customerid");

This weired part could break the security as i think that users data must not be accessible for anybody

It doesn't need any explanation if you click on the field contents it will open the user form and you'll be able to its data
