下面代码里为什么要有hidden，hidden的作用，hidden返回的值是什么？

Question

function login(){ var hidden=document.getElementById("hidden").value; if(document.getElementById("username"+hidden).value ==""){ alert("用户名不能为空"); return false; }else if(document.getElementById("password"+hidden).value ==""){ alert("密码不能为空"); return false; } else { return true; } } function adminlogin(){ document.getElementById("username1").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("password1").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("username2").style.display="block"; document.getElementById("password2").style.display="block"; document.myform.action="admin/login" } function init(){ document.getElementById("username1").style.display="block"; document.getElementById("password1").style.display="block"; document.getElementById("username2").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("password2").style.display="none"; document.myform.action="user/user_login"; } function change(){ var select=document.myform.type.value; if(select=="0") { var username2=document.getElementById("username2").value; var password2=document.getElementById("password2").value; init(); document.getElementById("username1").value=username2; document.getElementById("password1").value=password2; } if(select=="1") { var username1=document.getElementById("username1").value; var password1=document.getElementById("password1").value; adminlogin(); document.getElementById("username2").value=username1; document.getElementById("password2").value=password1; } }
