Can i know the reason why you are going with Client Script.
In case its requirement, then go ahead with Onload client script and write the code as :---- g_form.setReadOnly("field_name",true);
But I would still suggest go ahead with UI policy.

You can create a UI policy if you want to set a field as read only always (if unable at dictionary level).

Hi Shaik,
You set read only by using UI policy, client script or you can write ACL for number field.

For Number field, go ahead and configure it via dictionary as it should be applicable everywhere but for the fields specific to a table use UI Policy if those field are not extended from parent tables.
Hope this helps you.
