Have a look at this link: https://survey.google.com/wix/p0986235.aspx
Uhm… let’s have a look at the source HTML of the page, and we’ll not find the “_VIEWSTATE” hidden field (it should be there also if we disable the viewstate in the @Page directly and for every control in the page) and the “__DoPostBack” Javascript method to submit the form… ?
I may be completely wrong, they could have removed the unused _viewstate hidden field on the server right before sending the html stream to the client, but why? Just to save 2-3 Kb?
Don’t know… sounds like a “trick”… maybe they just wanted to check the reaction about the file extension… ?
Just to be clear: I don’t find anything wrong with it, just fun ?
What do you think?
