hidden fields???

11 New Member
hi everyone

can you tell me about the real function of hidden

fields. i read that the user doesn`t need to

resend his/her information twice by using hidden

fields
now what does that mean?does it mean that these

field are accessible through using $_POST[...]
if so what`s the need to use them we can use the

info field itself
otherwise how can we use them so that we wont need to insert the information again and again? can`t we simply use a nonhidden field and post its value through other pages?

i`m looking forward to see your ideas
thanx in adv
