 * Hello,
 * You can define the CSS rule:
 *     ```
       input:read-only,
       select:read-only,
       textarea:read-only{cursor:not-allowed !important;}
       ```
   
 * But in reality this question is not related with our plugin, it is CSS basic,
   you can find this information in any CSS tutorial.
 * Best regards.

 * Hello,
 * Frst of all Thank you. And I’m sorry for asking a newb question as I’m not a 
   tech geek. I just have another question, is it possible to make the cursor “not
   become” an x when hovered over a dropdown field? because the above code makes
   the cursor go x when hovered on a dropdown field.
 * thanks.

 * Hello,
 * In the previous code remove the line:
 * `select:read-only,`
 * and that’s all.
    Best regards.
