GWT ListBox - how to have a listbox item disabled?

Question

How can I have the first item in a listbox disabled? Following is my code:

ListBox list  = new ListBox();
list.addItem("Select an item");
list.addItem("a");
list.addItem("b");
list.addItem("c");

How do I disable the first item in list? Thanks so much

Answer 1

list.getElement().<SelectElement>cast().getOptions().getItem(0).setDisabled(true‌​);

Answer 2

For anyone who finds this page and is looking to disable a GWT ListBox option which is NOT the first option in the ListBox, this worked for me:

list.getElement().getElementsByTagName("option").getItem(itemNumber).setAttribute("disabled", "disabled");

Where itemNumber is the option you would like to disable.

Answer 3

You could select the first child element and set the disabled atribute:

list.getElement().getFirstChildElement().setAttribute("disabled", "disabled");
