Symfony not editable form field

Question

I am new to Symfony, and Im wondering whether there is a build in way to show a not editable input field within a form.(not hidden, not editable, so it just appears in a box)

I am using echo_field and doctrine model.

Answer 1

Just set the read_only attribute to true when you make the form.

$builder->add('dueDate', 'text', array('read_only' => true));
