Generates one or more <input type="hidden" ... /> HTML tags based on
the value supplied. The hidden tag assigns the value attribute by scanning in the
following order:
The result of this scan can produce either a Collection, an Array or any other
Object. In the first two cases the tag will output an HTML hidden form field tag for
each value in the Collection or Array. In all other cases the Object is toString()'d
(unless it is null) and a single hidden field will be written.
