What is a hidden form field? Why would you want to create a hidden form field? How is such a field created?

What will be an ideal response?


A special type of form element called a hidden form field allows you to hide information from users. You create hidden form fields with the element. Hidden form fields temporarily store data that needs to be sent to a server with the rest of a form, but that a user does not need to see. Examples of data stored in hidden fields include the result of a calculation or some other type of information that a program on the Web server might need. You create hidden form fieldsĀ  using the same syntax used for other fields created with the element: . The only attributes that you can include with a hidden form field are the name and value attributes.
