Seems to me like there are two different issues working here. A small set of code to demonstrate the use case you describe would be helpful.

GET and POST are methods to request data from a server. Traditionally, the former is done with url query strings and the later with form submissions; but you could be talking about some AJAX (JQuery, etc) transaction for all we know. Once the server responds to the request - with the data for your browser (be it html with a form - the value fields already provided, or a video stream, or whatever), the request method is mostly moot.

Your client's lack of static resources in their pages (css, js, etc) sounds like a caching issue, either in the network (services like Cloudflare, for example), server or browser. We these files recently added or changed? Are they coming from a different server?

I have a customer who wants to pre-load values into a form but they would like to use POST instead of GET.

As far as I know there is no difference in my code as far as loading values into the various fields in the form (and they report that the formdata does load) but they say that static items such as .css and .js don't load when they do this so the form does not look right on their side.

My question is, do any of you have experience in doing this, and is there a way to do it?
Can you POST to a form and have it properly display?

This takes place over HTTPS so a GET will be secure across the network, but their browser history will save the information I think and also the webserver will log the request so security is still a concern.

Thanks,
