One reason to have 2 methods is for dealing with pages that have multiple forms. Say 2 forms both have 'title' fields. You submit one form, but there's a validation error. So you switcheroo the user back to the original page. If your forms are 'sticky' (i.e. they are set up to show the values just submitted), then *both* forms will show the 'title' just submitted. So instead of a switcheroo, you can do an external redirect. You also need some additional framework to store the error message and submitted values in a session, and restore them on the other side of the redirect, but it solves the problem. d. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Maypole-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/maypole-devel
