Hi friends

Each ASP.NET web page has its own ViewState which is stored by default in a hidden form field called __VIEWSTATE.

Even if two pages have the same contents, it doesn't follow that their __VIEWSTATE fields will have similar contents as you might have stored extra stuff in ViewState for one page but not the other one.
