Make Text Field item as Read Only in APEX 5.0

I have some text field page items on my APEX 5.0 page and I want to make the textboxes as read only/non-editable. During the page load I want to use these text boxes for only the data display on the page and should be non-editable. Can somebody advice on how to do that? What attributes need to set for this?

This answer is a bit late to the party, but I found myself confronted to this problem and I wanted to share the solution I came up with.

In fact you just need to create your item as a text area, let say P1_Text_Area and you give it a readonly attribute using JavaScript. Write thoses 2 lines in the "Function and Global Variable Declaration" of your page:

var disItem = document.getElementById('P1_Text_Area');
disItem.readOnly = true;

Hope this helps someone in need.
