Hahaha, how can this be urgent... Viewstate can be a very very very powerfull tool for developing ASP.NET webpages. But you can switch them off using the page's EnableViewState property... is that quick enough for you??

Because you have changed the method of the form from POST to GET.

I switched off enableviewstate in page level. But still getting viewstate hidden control. And in our website, we are getting error log, it gives the request url, it says ....aspx?__viewstate=/....... We never use postback option in all our pages. So how come this is possible? Is it any hack attack?
