Does form with enctype=“multipart/form-data” cause problems accessing a hidden field

Question

I have created a hidden form element

Answer 1

Not sure if this helps, but I have used multipart forms in jsp pages which are submitted to a struts servlet and these pages have hidden fields which are received in my Struts Action classes (wrapped in Struts ActionForm), so I don't think there is any hard stop here.

Have you tried receiving this value as String and seeing what actually comes there?
