viewstate error

[Hillary Hill]

I am getting the following error.
Ths steps are
1. A Page with Datagrid and literal control.
2. View state is the default one for all the controls. (Not changed).
3. When user clicks the HTML button, I am redirecting the user to
myNext.aspx page from the client side code as shown.
document.frmForm.action="myNext.aspx";
document.frmForm.submit();
What is the error that I am making here?
Thanks,
Hill

Hi,

actually this is a .net bug (the error message, to be more precise).
Check this msdn article - there is a hotfix available:

The "Viewstate is invalid for this page" error message does not provide
sufficient information to troubleshoot the issue
