Hi,

Hi!

One way to prevent this is to contribute a T5 httprequest filter that just redirects to error page if it detects a post url submitted using GET.

Well, Tapestry always submit by POST, so any submission using GET is not an human user. If you want to provide access to robots, I think it's better to have some kind of API linke Twitter has.

(And isn't hrx?)

hrx? I guess I need some more internet vocabulary . . . hehehe

This is one of the T5 weaker sides I think. It produces many
like these in the production for us for a site that slightly altered url
layout, although these errors are rarely made by human.

I think this is an upside, not a downside, as it shows that suspicious requests are being made.

Haven't seen that one on our production servers, however our servers are
getting hammered by someone trying to get /index.html which produces "there is no such component in page... blah .. the valid components are...".
This can be fixed by implementing a component named html that does
absolutely nothing and placing it to the page.

You could also have an URL rewriter rule to catch that.
