Hello.

Try "disabled"

i have try it but i can still insert any value into the field. the value will be assign by js function that i have create so it doesn't need any customer input.

In that case try hidden input

I think you should check how core engine build elements to get idea about correct values
For example https://github.com/abantecart/abantecart-src/blob/master/public_html/core/engine/html.php#L720
