I have a text field which displays the username. The user should not be able to edit the text field values. Can anyone help me on this?

Thanks,
Sagar.

Where exactly does this field appear?

If it's the one in the profile page, you should go to the permissions settings and un-check the relevant permission.

Hi,

You could try adding one of the following attributes to your text field:

  $form['username'] = array(
    '#type' => 'textfield',
    '#title' => t('username'),
    '#attributes' => array('readonly' => 'readonly'),
  );

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#adef-readonly

  $form['username'] = array(
    '#type' => 'textfield',
    '#title' => t('username'),
    '#attributes' => array('disabled' => 'disabled'),
  );

Thank your.

I have been trying

'#readonly' => ture,
'#readonly' => readonly,

Is not correct..

but use '#disabled' => ture, Is feasible

Thank you very much ..
'#attributes' => array('readonly' => 'readonly'),

function alter_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
switch ($form_id) {
case 'article_node_form': // content type article check with dsm($form)
global $user;
if (in_array('editor', array_values($user->roles))) {
$form['title']['#disabled'] = TRUE;
}
break;
}
}
