i want a value in a textbox on a form to be passed to a database but i do not want to show it on the page..now i just want the textbox to be hidden..can i do it in html...i have not used html a lot..i use WYSIWYG programs usually( I am ashamed)..i tried with "disabled" tag but then it shows the value and if i compromise on that.. i am unable to pass it to the database either..what should i do to hide the textbox...i want something like "visible" property in VB..<br />
<br />
thanx<!--content-->HTML forms feature a type="hidden" element that functions as a typical name=value submitter while not actually displaying - useful for both client- and server-side form handling tasks. If you don't need the functionality of the <input type="text"> try that instead. The field value can be easily entered, if necessary, via scripting.<br />
