You can use the "disabled" property of the textarea

Just set it to true.

yes but i have to do it on a selection value of a combo box, i mean it would require javascript function
that
if combobox.value =="??" then textarea.disabled = true (sumthing like this)

Yeah, pretty much.
And execute the function with the "onchange" event of the select box.
