jqgrid disable input and change text color in IE

Is there a way in IE to disable cell input inside grid and change it's color (so it won't be gray)?

Or Is there another way to disable an input - and not by changing it to "readonly"?

UPDATE: I'm using inline editing , and my cell input is a regular simpl开发者_运维技巧e input (editable:true, edittype:'text'). I want this input to be disabled but to changed it's text color to black when it is disabled.

Thank's In Advance.

The answer how to change the editable attribute temporary for some column before stating of editRow. In the way no input element will be created and you will not have toe problem which you try to solve.
