title: Does a hidden input field affect SEO?
body: <p>If I have hidden input fields in a form, can I throw them around anywhere or will SEO 'punish' me for that?</p>
  
  <p>examples:</p>
  
  <pre><code>...
  &lt;td&gt;text&lt;/td&gt;
  &lt;input type='hidden' /&gt;
  &lt;td&gt;more text&lt;/td&gt;
  ....
  &lt;td&gt;text&lt;input type='hidden' /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
  &lt;td&gt;more text&lt;/td&gt;
  ....
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>.. and not just anywhere in a table but anywhere in the page, does it matter where you put it if it's hidden?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
