I believe I have disabled the view state on all controls as well as the page itself, but the querystring still contains the __viewstate and __eventvalidation parameters.
Any ideas on what to check and/or change? Is there something I may not know about viewstate (very likely) that is causing the view state to be transmitted in the form GET method?
Thanks,
Kevin
Edit:
I am using the GET method because I would like the form results to be able to be bookmarked, linked, etc. This is not possible with Post simply because the form data isn’t transmitted via the URL.
And I prefer the viewstate/eventvalidation not shown simply for aesthetic reasons.

Method 1
Removing the runat="server" attribute from the form tag will effectively remove the hidden viewstate and eventvalidation fields. But then you can’t use server controls on the page, so I doubt that’s what you want to do.
Are you sure the __viewstate and __eventvalidation fields appear in your querystring?? That does sound a bit strange.
Post some code and tell us why you want to remove the hidden fields in the first place. If you disable viewstate on a page-level, the values in the hidden fields should remain relatively small…
