i have a table look like this:

--------------
[0] |apple | (readonly)
---------------
[1] | |
---------------

i can put [0].value to [1].value by entering the following script.
<script language="javascript">
document.all[txtField_1].value = document.all[txtField_0].value
</script>

However, the problem is i want to get the [0].readonly to [1] as well, i
failed to do that.
i've tried
if (document.all[txtField_0].readonly=true)
{
document.all[txtField_1].readonly=true;
}
else
{
document.all[txtField_1].readonly=false;
}

Please help

The main problem there is your use of = instead of ==, the former an
assignment, the latter a comparison.

The second is your use of .readonly rather than .readOnly (remember JS
is case sensitive).

Although I wouldn't use the document.all collection - preferring the
standards compliant w3c method of document.getElementById() - however as
you are using it for your example, I will do the same..

document.all[txtField_1].readOnly = document.all[txtField_1].readOnly;

Hope this helps.

A simple change of if (element.readOnly == true)_

Use document.all[txtField_1].readOnly=true;


"readonly" is case sensitive
