Answer / maloy.adhikari

When a form is submitted in ASP .NET, the form reappears in
the browser window together with all form values. How come?
This is because ASP .NET maintains your ViewState. The
ViewState indicates the status of the page when submitted to
the server. The status is defined through a hidden field
placed on each page with a <form runat="server"> control.
................
Maintaining the ViewState is the default setting for ASP.NET
Web Forms. If you want to NOT maintain the ViewState,
include the directive <%@ Page EnableViewState="false" %> at
the top of an .aspx page or add the attribute
EnableViewState="false" to any control.
