When you create an ASP.NET page with no controls and runs it, a view state hidden field is added.
Looking at what’s in it (with ViewStateDecorder) reveals that there’s a single value there that contains a number.
My question is – what is this number?
P.S. I guess this value appears on every page, with or without controls.
The ASP.NET page stores a hash code in the “__VIEWSTATE” hidden field that is used to ensure that the view state hasn’t been tampered with between postbacks.
