I have a button which should be disabled when the JSP page loads.
How do I achieve this?

A:
If there is no any specific conditions for disabling button, you can use HTML attribute disabled. Like this, instead of dynamically changing it on load.
<input type="button" disabled="disabled" value="My button" name="btn1" />

The only value the disabled attribute can have is "disabled", "true" is not a valid value.

You correct, fixed it.

@David Dorward: Incorrect, on w3.org the disabled attribute is listed as a **Boolean**.

I wouldn't cite w3schools over the W3C... @animuson http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/intro/sgmltut.html#didx-boolean_attribute `Boolean attributes may legally take a single value: the name of the attribute itself (e.g., selected="selected").`

@deceze: Thanks for clearing that up, I was looking at an XHTML sheet that only listed the attribute as a Boolean without explanation.
