title: How do I Request data from an input field in ASP.NET?
body: <p>Simple question. I have the following hidden input field on my ASP.NET page:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;form id="userform" method="post" action="RankingPage.aspx"&gt;
      &lt;input type="hidden" id="email" /&gt;
      &lt;input type="hidden" id="name" /&gt;
  &lt;/form&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm trying to get the data from the field (in my code behind) like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
  {
      string name = Request.Form["name"].ToString();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It's returning a null reference (which I'm assuming means it couldn't find the field). Am I doing this wrong?</p>
