Stop overtyping of data within IFRAME ?

[tcurrier]

I'm using an IFRAME to display an Excel Spreadsheet, but when it opens, I'm able to type over the data in the spreadsheet.... I don't want this to happen.
I know it's not actually altering the original file, but it messes up the looks of the page.

I tried making the spreadsheet file read/only, but that doesn't work.

Is there any way to 'protect' the data within the IFRAME ?

You could always just not use an Excel spreadsheet and not use an <iframe>. Just use a table to display the data you want on the page.

Thanks, but the spreadsheet is constantly being updated, so I wouldn't want to have to change a table every time the data in the spreadsheet changed....

Ideally you would put the current spreadsheet values into the table every time the page is displayed from the server.
