The only benefits of using GET that I can think of is that you can emulate a
form by manually keying the data in the URL, and you can even create a
bookmark containing the completed form details. I personally use this to
bookmark specific queries to some of my databases tosave mehaving to complete
the form every time I want a status update.
The benefits of POST are tidier URLs, and not having the limits I mentioned
above.

There is perchance the 'unintended' side effect here that most folks forget http://xanana/Demo/?sysname=bob&config_host=libex is a 'unique' URL from http://xanana/Demo/ The former is seen with a GET the later is what would be seen with a POST - where this can get messy is when the browser has caching on - and one's web-design has multiple queries that will be routing through the same URL.... ciao drieux --- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
