How to disable people picker with browse and checknames for particular control

Question

Hi,

              I am using
                              $(this).find("a[Title='Check Names']").click();
                               $(this).find("a[Title='Browse']").attr("onclick","");

                to disable checknames and browse but it is disabling for all people picker controls and I need to disable for only particular control and all other people picker controls should display these elements. Kindly suggest any possible ways or references to achieve this.

Thanks

Answer 1

When you say you want this to be disabled for "only particular control" and not all, what exactly is the context here? People pickers on one specific form? One specific people picker field within a form that has multiple? Please elaborate...

Also out of pure curiosity, what is the goal here or why do you need to do this?
