Disable ALL dropdownlist with jquery

I am using jQuery to disable all inputs until the user performs some action. 

$('input[type=text]').attr('readonly', true);
$('input[type=select]').attr('disabled', true);

This works fine for the textboxes but doesn't affect the dropdown list. Is it the type or something else? Thank you in advance.

Use prop() instead of attr() for this. Besides select is not an input but a separate tag:

$('select').prop('disabled', true);

Also you can simply use :input selector to reference all inputs in one go. This will cover both input and select:

$(':input').prop('disabled', true);
