Disabling manual input in dijit.form.DateTextBox

Question

I want to only have the calendar to specify my textbox input, and not permit keyboard-punched numbers in my calendar textbox, inside dijit.form.DateTextBox. Is there any way to do that?

Thanks.

The code below can be used to make DateTextBox read only:

<input data-dojo-type="dijit/form/DateTextBox" 
       data-dojo-id="effectiveDate" 
       type="text" 
       name="effectiveDate" 
       id="effectiveDate" 
       data-dojo-props="'readonly': 'readonly'"/>
