On the other hand, there are limitations to GET that will not work
with most HTML forms - that's why POST is used instead.

In HTTP protocol GET method is considered idempotent that is
multiple
calls to the same resource should result in the same
result. In Contrast
POST method is no idempotent and therefore if a URL with
POST method is
refreshed browsers will through a warning message.
Therefore, we should use GET method for the safe operations
such as
fetching a list of records based on input parameters and
POST for
transaction which can change the state of application for
example
inserting a record in database.

Most browsers have a warning popup window that tells
the user that a screen refresh will result in reposting
data. Maybe you could supplement that with a similar warning
on the web page itself.

Hi
I have customised ofbiz for the travel industry. I
do not
hold any
product. All product sold is reserved and booked
on a 3rd
party site.
Generally cancellation has heavy penalties. In the
even a
customer buys
an additional item by mistake one of the parties
will lose
50 - 100% on
a refund. I would like to customise my ofbiz to
prevent
items been
added on refresh. Does anyone have any suggestion
or
comments on how
best to do this?
Thanks
Rees
