jQuery “not readonly” selector

Question

I'm looking for something along the lines of...

$(':input:not(readonly)') // all inputs which are not readonly

but struggling to find the syntax.

Any pointers? thanks

Answer 1

I recently did something similar like this:

$('#element').find(':input').not(':input[readonly]');

Answer 2

I would like to add another answer that works for me, using context https://api.jquery.com/context/

$(this).context.readOnly == false / true

Answer 3

This should work:

$(":input:not([readonly])")

Answer 4

I suppose you are looking for something like the following:

$('input:not([readonly="readonly"])')

Have a look at jQuery's various attribute-selectors.

Answer 5

$('input:not([readonly])')

would cover readonly, readonly="true" and readonly="readonly"
