The BaseHidden is an abstract TransformationBean for creating hidden input fields.
Hidden fields should not be rendered on the client and provide a means for servers
to store state information with a form. This will be passed back to the
server when the form is submitted. This is a workaround for the
statelessness of HTTP.
Note that subclasses of this bean actually provide the markup rendering used in/with Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies. If you need to add support for a markup language that is not explicitly provided with AppDev Studio, then you must extend this class.
For More Information:
JSP custom tags provide an alternative to using the TransformationBeans. Visit the Custom Tag Library Reference for additional information on the sas:Hidden custom tag.
