+Hidden inputs are not shown to the user, but they hold data like any textual input. Values inside them can be changed with JavaScript. The search, tel, url and email inputs are specified in HTML5 and may receive special handling and/or formatting

 TIP: If you're using password input fields (for any purpose), you might want to configure your application to prevent those parameters from being logged.
