As stated in the HTML specification, disabled controls
cannot be
successful:
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#
disabled

This is part of HTML, and is the responsibility of your
client(s) to
correctly omit disabled fields. You might look into
'readonly' as an
alternative to achieve immutable, yet successful, controls.
