Unable to set date value into a readonly textbox

Hi team,
I have a problem sahi can not find the ID of the textbox defined below.
<input name="ctrlPETimeline$ctrlTimelines$cgProjects$txtEnd_-1$txtDate" id="ctrlPETimeline_ctrlTimelines_cgProjects_txtEnd_-1_txtDate" style="text-align: left; width: 100%; background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%;" onchange="CheckDateValue(this);SelectedEndDate(this);SelectedEndDate(this);" type="text" readOnly="readonly" ToolTip=""/>
This textbox has a small button next to it, when you click the button a calendar displays and when you select a date from the calendar, selected date get sets in the textbox.
when I set the value using sahi controller I get the "undefined" error. When I manually set the value it works but when i set i via sahi it doesn't. I have been stuck with this problem for the past 4 days and I am turning into circles.
_setValue("ctrlPETimeline_ctrlTimelines_cgProjects_txtStart_-1_txtDate", "22 Aug 2012");
Thank you for your hep. :-)

where is your element? shouldn't it be _setValue(_textbox("ctrlPETimeline_ctrlTimelines_cgProjects_txtStart_-1_txtDate"), "22 Aug 2012");
I meant to say _setValue(_textbox("ctrlPETimeline_ctrlTimelines_cgProjects_txtStart_-1_txtDate"), "22 Aug 2012"); this does not set the value to the textboox.
Do you perhaps have an idea on how can I overcome this.
thanks again
I tried this and it works like a charm :-)
_assertFalse(_textbox("ctrlPETimeline_ctrlTimelines_cgProjects_txtStart_-1_txtDate").readOnly=false);
_setValue(_textbox("ctrlPETimeline_ctrlTimelines_cgProjects_txtStart_-1_txtDate"), "22 Aug 2012");
the value now gets set into the textbox and the value is committed when I click the save button.
Thanks
I have one more question, How would you check if a textbox or a button is disabled using he if statement?
I want to achieve something like this:
if(_getAttribute(_submit("btnRequestApproval")), "disabled"==true)
{
//do something
}
else
{
//do something else
}
//$textbox= _collect("_textbox", "/.*/", _in(_table(28)));
//_debug($textbox);
//_debug("Total No. of TextBoxes: "+ $textbox.length);
_set($textbox, _count("_textbox","/.*/"));
_alert($textbox);
