How to use it

Lets say you have a div with a form and inputs and buttons inside:

<div disable-all="true">

    <form>
        <input name="name" type="text">
        <button>submit</button>
    </form>
    
    <!-- This will not be disabled -->
    <a href="http://google.com" skip-disable>google</a>

</div>

Note: The skip-disable directive allow you to exclude a DOM element of the disable-all directive.

You can also specify boolean variable to disable-all, directive will watch it and disable / enable div when variable changes.

<div disable-all="isDisabled">

    <form>
        <input name="name" type="text">
        <button>submit</button>
    </form>

</div>
