When you hide the field for web-browsers using the hide-when formulas, the field does not
get put into the HTML document. --Check the HTML source file from your browser to verify
this. To work around this, don't hide the field, but instead in the Options Tab in help
description put in . Now it will be in your HTML file generated by Domino as an input of
type hidden.

That code hides...

it is <type = hidden> with an open and close square bracket on each side.

*******************************
Even easier...Notes 4.6 or later

put the following code in the http attributes of the field you want to hide:

"type=hidden"

If you are using a version earlier than 4.6 you can use the Help Description line in the Options tab of the field
properties box to enter the previous html code.
