Well yeah, but not on all browsers. Should have said I tested on the
following:
FF 3.0.6
IE 7.0.5
Chrome 0.2.1
On Win XP, these all pass the value.
Does anyone know a browser/OS combo that doesn't?
If anyone's interested in checking, submitting this form will say for sure:
<cfdump var="#FORM#">
<form method="post">
<input type="text" name="field-1" style="display: none;" />
<input type="text" name="field-2" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
