[jQuery] Using Jquery Form Plugin with Hidden fields

[JamesF]

Hi,

I am using the jquery form plugin and I am very surprised that it
doesn't post hidden field values to my php file.

I need

<form id="newTagForm" action="ajax-add-tag.php" method="post">
        <fieldset>
                <input type="hidden" id="resourceID" name="resourceID" value="" 
/>
                <input type="text" id="usertags" name="usertags" value="" />
                <input type="submit" id="addtag" name="addtag" value="Add" />
        </fieldset>
</form>

Need to receive it like:
        $tagsString             = makeDataSafe($_POST['usertags']);
        $resourceID             = makeDataSafe($_POST['resourceID']);

At the moment I've turned the hidden field into a text field and I'm
hiding it. Is there a better way?
