Hello,

Had a question in section "Not All Controls Rely on View State"....

It says, "When a page with such a TextBox in it is posted back, the browser also sends the value of the control back to the server." I was wondering how this is done? Is the textbox value added to the body of the request during the postback? How is the server able to see the textbox value?

Tulsi

It sends it in the bodu of the request. This is standard web behavior, and not specific to ASP.NET. All HTML controls (such as input type="text", select and so on) submit their values to the server when you submit their parent form to the server using something like input type="submit".


Cheers,

Imar
