Is passing Querystring same as Hidden variable?

[Bobby Edward]

On my HTML form I have an POST action that points to an online DLL. in my
form I have a hidden input field...
<input type='hidden' name='x_login' value='xxxxxxxx' />

Is this the same as doing a response.redirect to the DLL with a querystring
arg of the name/value pair, like this...

response.redirect(http://......../Some.DLL?x_login=xxxxxxxx)

Is this equivalent?

No, it's not equivalent.

If you have method="get" (or unspecified) in your form, it's equivalent.

Thanks. Then how would I pass it thru code to the DLL?

 

[Bobby Edward]

Response.Redirect("http://......./Some.DLL?x_login=" +
Request.Form["x_login"].ToString(), false);

Thanks Mark. So by doing a Request.Form that is like posting a hidden input
field to the DLL? I assume your example should read...

Request.Form["xxxxxxx"].ToString(),false);

Right?
