I'm reviewing my code wrote time ago. The input text that I wrote is the following:
<input type="text" class="form-control form-control-sm" id="mypid" name="mypid" value="" placeholder="" readonly="readonly" required>
I tested the form and with my surprise I found out that even if I added 'required', I can actually submit even if the field is empty. The field is readonly because my code will autofill that field automatically, I need that the user doesn't write anything by themselves, so I need it to be readonly and required at the same time. But I didn't expect to see that now it's not considered required anymore. What am I doing wrong here? Any suggestion? Thank you very much for your help.

your question has already been answered here. But to explain it to you, you have to replace your readonly by onkeypress="return false;" which gives almost the same result.
