Yes, I assumed it is trying to help me ...

But don't want it's (CGI's) help ...  in this case 

Any one know how to stop it ... I do a $q->new CGI after getting my values
from the post ;  and yes I use $q->endform;

                If youre using the CGI.pm module, theres most likely a
subroutine or other
                part of your code that is explicitly printing these hidden
fields, in an
                attempt to maintain state between successive invocations of
your script
                (assuming you have a multipage form).  Check for a line
something like
                "print hidden(-name='.cgifields')" 

                But then again its hard to diagnose any problem without
seeing your source
                code ;)
