Disable double click on SELECT tag

Question

What I am trying to do is to have a read-only Select tag and I found this post here HTML form readonly SELECT tag/input. It does works by putting this.blur() when it is on focus.

However, when I tried with IE, I still manage to access the list when I double click on the select tag. Is there any way I can disable that on IE?

Thanks.

Readonly `select`? Why not just have a select with only 1 option? — tymeJV, Oct 11 '13 at 01:58

Can you just cover a transparent div above?
