CGI.PM and hidden()



I am trying to replace this

print "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"page\" value=$page>\n";


with this

print hidden(-name=>"page", -value=>$page);

problem is that the new line does not print the correct value of $page
(its supposed to change every pass through the perl code), I have
tried enclosing the contents of the hidden() command in "{}" but this
made no difference. I am not sure what the role of these brackets
are, some syntax shows them present and other forms of the syntax
shows them absent.

appreciate any help
