Workaround for readonly item

There is a workaround for you: a .htm type document template.

1. Create a simple local htm file (e.g. x.htm) with minimal html content.
2. Import this file in your database under Templates item.
Be sure to import as stored document
(e.g. drag and drop file to Templates item while pressing Ctrl key)
3. Modify the URL attribute value of the imported item. New value: .htm
4. Edit the Item Title of the new template item (e.g. Html_doc).
You can delete the local file.
----------------
5. Create a new info item based on the new template Html_doc
6. Select menu item: Item | Edit web page (Ctrl+Shift+0) (=enable editing)
7. Edit content in Item Details pane
8. Select menu item: Item | Edit web page (Ctrl+Shift+0) (=disable editing)

Use step 5 to create readonly html items.
Use steps 6-8 to edit and protect again.

Recommended setting:
unchecked "Automatically begin editing web page items when selected" (Tools/Options/Documents)
