DEVELOPERS FORUM - can I enable and disable the form fields based on life cycle state?

Hi, 

    I think my issues are little different , I have already posted 2 issues but did 't get any replies from anyone.This time I hope that some one responds and replies to my question.
    My problem is, I have created one Itemtype and its form with some 'drop down','Item' and 'text' fields. Now based on the Life cycle state of my Itemtype I should disable and enable my text fields.
   
Like if the state is 'New' one text field should be disabled and other should be enabled.


Is it possible by creating a new java script method? or any other ways to make this happen?

 Please guide me with your answers.

 Thank you all,
  Harsha

Hi Harsha,

this code can be run from the formmethod tab, onFormpopulate

and will disable element with name = button1 if the Item is in "In Progress" state

Edit::

if (document.thisItem.getProperty("state","") === "In Progress")

   {
