Re: Using Django docs to find widget readonly specification

I'm new to learning Django.  I want to find the documentation regarding the readonly attribute you can set for admin widgets.  For example, from an admin.py:

class SourceForm(forms.ModelForm):

  data = forms.CharField(widget=TextInput(attrs={'readonly': True, 'class': 'averageField'}))

  class Meta:

    model = Source

class SourceAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):

  form = SourceForm

admin.site.register(Source, SourceAdmin)

I've search for readonly on https://docs.djangoproject.com/search/?q=readonly&release=7 but did not found anything.  Also searching manually in https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/widgets/ didn't bring anything up.  Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong please.

This is not documented on the Django site because it has nothing to do with Django. As the docs do explain, the `attrs` are used to set any HTML attributes on the rendered widget. `readonly` is an attribute belonging to the HTML input and select elements.
