Is there a way to give a textarea in Formbuilder the readonly state?

so ...

<textarea name="cntnt01fbrp__34" cols="60" rows="5" class="cms_textarea" id="container">
</textarea>

becomes ...

<textarea name="cntnt01fbrp__34" cols="60" rows="5" class="cms_textarea" id="container" readonly>
</textarea>

No, but you can use Static text instead.

Some would use a smarty replace on the FormBuilder tag. Or in the FormBuilder form template if you make a custom one.

Example:

{FormBuilder|replace:'name="cntnt01fbrp__34"':'name="cntnt01fbrp__34" readonly' form='contact'}

If you want to display text somewhere in the form best to use Static text...
