Have you seen this entry in the FAQ?
Why do I get "Input 'fieldname' is readonly"?
You're trying to change the value of a hidden field and you
have warnings on.
First, make sure that you actually mean to change the field
that you're changing, and that you don't have a typo. Usually,
hidden variables are set by the site you're working on for a
reason. If you change the value, you might be breaking some
functionality by faking it out.
If you really do want to change a hidden value, make the
changes in a scope that has warnings turned off:
{
local $^W = 0;
$agent->field( name => $value );
}
I found the FAQ here:

Hope this helps!
