[CLOSED] Access hidden field in code behind

Hi

I have a hidden field declared in my MVC view as follows:

Code:

---

@(X.Hidden().ID("hdn").Value(22))

---

and i try to access it in my controller using following code:

Code:

---

  var hdn= this.GetCmp<Hidden>("hdn");

---

but when I try to get is value using hdn.Value it gives me undefined.

Any suggestion whats wrong or missng

Thanks

Hi @PriceRightHTML5team,

It means that a Hidden's value is not submitted. Generally speaking, the ASP.NET MVC concept exclude auto submitting of everything how it is done in ASP.NET WebForm by means of

Code:

---

<form runat="server">

---

If you call a controller action via a DirectEvent/DirectMethod, I would suggest you to send a Hidden's Value as an extra parameter.

For example, as here with a DirectMethod in #3:
