ASPxDateEdit - Disabled control (ClientEnabled) posts a postback data to the server side

Thanks for your speedy reply. But I have 2 issues with it:

1. You did not address my observation that there is different behavior of IE vs. Firefox. In IE the value of the disabled ASPxDateEdit control is submitted but in Firefox it is not. It should not act differently in different browsers. Probably that is a defect of your control. Can you have the developers review this?
2. I cannot use your suggestion of using a Label instead of ASPxDateEdit, because I want to be able to use the Client-Side API to enable and disable the control (using SetEnabled). Is there a solution for this requirement that will NOT submit the value for a disabled ASPxDateEdit control, no matter what the browser?

Hello Tzadik,
To make our editors be consistent in different browsers, we do not disable an input element in the IE to allow users to apply disabled styles. When an editor has a disabled input tag, the browser will not allow applying custom styles to it.
For the IE in particular, we make editors readonly.
I see the inconsistent behavior between FireFox and IE when your code is used. However, I am not sure that it can be changed. If you want to disable our controls to prevent their values from being submitted to the server, you can disable an input element manually:

JavaScript
BirthDate.GetInputElement().disabled = "true";  

However, you should always remember that this approach might break your styles. in some browsers.
Thanks,
Vest
