HTML DOM Hidden object
Hidden object
The Hidden object represents a hidden input field in an HTML form.
This type of input element is actually hidden. T he value property of this invisible form element holds any string to submit to the Web server. Use this type of element if you want to submit data that is not directly entered by the user.
In HTML forms, for every time a label appears, a Hidden object is created.
You can access a hidden input field by traversing the form's array of elements, or by using document.getElementById().
