What is the t:formdata hidden field for?
In Tapestry, rendering a form can be a complicated process; inside the body of the Form component are many of field components: TextField, Select, TextArea, and so forth. Each of these must pull data out of your data model and convert it to the string form used inside the client web browser. In addition, JavaScript to support client-side validation must be generated. This can be further complicated by the use of Loop and If components, or made really complicated by the use of Block (to render portions of other pages: this is what the BeanEditForm component does). Along the way, the Form is generating unique form control names for each field component, as it renders. When the client-side Form is submitted, an event is triggered on the server-side Form component. It now needs to locate each component, in turn, inform the component of its control name, and allow the component to read the corresponding query parameter. The component then converts the client-side string back into a server-s
