Avoid update the key field

[jadec]

Hi Guys,
I'm writing a page to allow user to update a single record. the page is made of some input fields within a form. There are 2 key fields. After pgm load the record to the page, user can press the update button to update the record. But I don't want user override the key field. If I disable the key fields, I cann't get the key value by request.form.keyfield.value. What should I do to protect the key fields and still can request the key value? I don't know if I explain my problem clearly.

Thanks!

personally I have no idea what you mean.

if you don't want a field updating don't put the value in the update code.

failing that you will need to explain more maybe some code would assist.

what you do is diable the fields, then in the same fell swoop you put a hidden element with the same name , and then you can request the element.
