Re-enabling disabled form fields

[jonrmitchell]

You currently advocate removeAttr('disabled') for re-enabling disabled form fields. When jQuery first came out, attr() was the only way to modify the disabled state, and the proper way was indeed to use removeAttr(). Since jQuery 1.6, prop('disabled', true) is the right way to make an input disabled and prop('disabled', false); is the right way to re-eanble it (not removeAttr('disabled')).
