Answer 1

As it was already mentioned: READONLY does not work for <input type='checkbox'> and <select>...</select>.

If you have a Form with disabled checkboxes / selects AND need them to be submitted, you can use jQuery:

$('form').submit(function(e) {
    $(':disabled').each(function(e) {
        $(this).removeAttr('disabled');
    })
});

This code removes the disabled attribute from all elements on submit.
