title: Forced to use too many hidden fields; looking for an alternative approach
body: <p>I am looking for a better approach to do this.</p>
  
  <p>I have around 70 to 80 hidden fields in my page. This hidden fields are initialized at the server side and then used at the client side for validations, calculations, etc,. using java script.</p>
  
  <p>I wanted to know if there is any other alternative approach to using hidden fields in asp.net. I guess, these many hidden fields are increasing the page size and hence affecting the performance of my web page and I want to do away with it.</p>
  
  <p>FYI: I am working on an asp.net web application.</p>
