Display redirected form fields as read only

  1. I looked around but couldn't find an answer to this seemingly simple question.

    Form A is redirected to Form B and field data is passed via query string. Some form fields from Form A will be filled out by a member of our staff and displayed on Form B as "read-only" or "view-only". Form B will be seen by our clients.

    My question: I know HTML blocks don't display passed merge tags... so I was wondering is there a way to display a text field or other fields as Read-Only?... so it will essentially print the info on Form B.

    I read your staff is working on figuring out a "Preview Form" option... which will be great, but in the time being, being able to disable a field from editing passed information would work.

    Please advise. Thanks much.

  3. @ememiks, you are passing information from form 1 to form 2, and want to display it on form 2, in form fields, which are read only. Is that correct?
