How Do I: Share Data Between Client JavaScript and Server Code Using a Hidden Field

In this video Chris Pels will show how to share data in between JavaScript and server-side code by using a hidden field in an ASP.NET page. Next, learn how to use the RegisterHiddenField method in server-side code to programmatically create a hidden field on the client. In addition, see how to programmatically create a HiddenField server control for sharing data on an ASP.NET page. Finally, use the RegisterArrayDeclaration method to create a container in server code for storing multiple values that is rendered to the page where it can be accessed by JavaScript.

Hi, Good video but I think that using the scriptmanager at the end to inject javascript variables isn't the best way of storing that data. Instead I'd normally use the dropdown control as you can fill the control using xml/dataset while still being able to access the same data with clientside code.

I think it would be a good deal more efficient!
