Provides a form element for an HTML 'hidden' input element.

Specify either #default_value or #value but not both.

Properties:

  • #default_value: The initial value of the form element. JavaScript may alter the value prior to submission.
  • #value: The value of the form element. The Form API ensures that this value remains unchanged by the browser.

Usage example:

$form['entity_id'] = array(
  '#type' => 'hidden',
  '#value' => $entity_id,
);

Plugin annotation

@FormElement("hidden");
