ViewState - in simple terms

The ViewState is just an encrypted version of what was last sent down, so that next time there is a post to the server, it can all be sent back up as one thing. It can then be used on the server, to see if a field's value changed, etc.

The browser does not care about ViewState, and does not use it to populate the controls.
