State Bag

Every AspDotNet form has a hidden field that stores all the view state of the form.

<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" value="dDwtMTE1MTIwMDUz" />

Actually, it is much much longer

This view is represented by StateBag object.

--

The ViewState? variable is a Base64 representation of a serialization of the StateBag, so the larger the page's objects, the longer the ViewState?. --AllanBaruz
