Is there any justification for the 'stickiness' of hidden fields? A
web page viewer cannot legitimately enter a value into a hidden field,
so why would anyone want to hold over a value to the next page?
I really got stuck on this one for a while because I was creating a
session and passing the session id in a hidden field and it was
getting stuck there and not changing when it was supposed to until I
added -override=>1.
Also, in passing session id via url, Konqueror seems to have a problem
with this. Even with sample code from the Perl and MySQL book, I had
to go to the address bar and press enter each time as if I was typing
in the address with session id each time for it to work. I did not
bother to test this with Netscape since I prefer passing by hidden
field and that seems to work now that I know they are sticky.
