<div class="form-group">
    <label for="AKAName">AKAName: </label>
    <input name="AKAName" id="AKAName" class="datetimepicker-month form-control" value="<?=$data['AKAName']?>" placeholder="AKAName">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
    <label for="Gender">Gender: </label>

</div>
<div class="form-group">

</div>
<div class="form-group">
    <label for="ArabicName">Arabic Name: </label>
    <input name="ArabicName" id="ArabicName" class="datetimepicker-month form-control" value="<?=$data['ArabicName']?>" placeholder="Arabic Name">
</div>

Is there any short way that i can dynamically add read-only attribute to all input fields.

this worked for me

 <script>
    $(function () {
        $('input[type="text"]').prop('readonly', true);
    });
</script>

Try this:

$('.classname').attr('readonly', 'readonly');

OR you can use this:

$('.classname').prop('readonly', true);

You can use element selector with attribute value selector to select all the textboxes and apply the readonly property to all of the selected elements.

$('input[type="text"]').prop('readonly', true);

To select all the textboxes in the form

$('yourFormSelector input[type="text"]').prop('readonly', true);

As an alternative to attribute value selector, you can also use :text selector to select all textboxes.

$(':text').prop('readonly', true);

you can specify a common class (recommended) or just globally target all the input elements in the form (not recommended)

$('input[type="text"]').prop('readonly', true);

You can use class for that

$('.form-control').prop('readonly', true);
