three states checkbox

[Bob Bedford]

I've been able to disable a checkbox when needed. This is fine, but on my
website, you don't really see that the checkbox is disabled. Does it exist a
way to show a red X in the middle of the checkbox instead of disable it, and
also avoid a user to click on it ?

I've looked around, but couldn't find any help.

Thanks

Your browser should give you some clue that an element is disabled,
usually the element is "greyed" out.

I know, but since the background is grey, it doesn't look very well !!!! and
the purpose is also to show the disabled buttons.

Overlay a transparant image with a big red X over the checkbox using
position:absolu te. This way the image will be clicked, not the checkbox.
