I agree with Mark, though, I would like to know the functional case. By selecting both mandatory and read-only, you are telling the end user:

If the field is empty, you MUST enter a value to proceed.
You ARE NOT ALLOWED to enter a value.

At this point the user throws their laptop out the window.

Easy, a quick way to add a marker to indicate a field is correct or something.

So a quick check on field and update a checkbox (read only, mandatory and hidden) to be true to allow the form to submit, or false and not.

Why, a single onChange script to show immediate feedback and saves writing an onSubmit

I can think of other ways around this issue, but that is a quick n dirty reason
