You must have upgraded to newer version of jQuery which is greater than 1.5. For jQuery greater than 1.5, attr will not work but need to use prop as shown below.

$("input").prop('disabled','disabled');

What you are doing is old style was applicable for Jquery 1.5 and below. For version 1.6 and above you need to write this

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

Hope it helps.
