Whether Browser Understand the View State of Html Page

View State is encrypted 开发者_Python百科in HTML Page so My Question is Whether Browser Understand the View State of Html Page or it is Understand by Server ?

it is done by the server. It saves the state for each user/browser. The browser can only see something like the session ID in php (in some hidden fields and/or cookie)
