Thanks. yeah, I'm not planning on doing this for anything that needs to
be secure but if a user submits a form with 4 pop-up items, and a
simple text field to return a result, I can't have a system where
hitting the back button causes a big nasty error page in IE 6 which is
practically 98% of the browser market. I'm actually confused as to
how most people get around this when building WO applications. I know
I can write a direct action but that seems to defeat some of the beauty
of using WO to handle form processing.
I guess if I was building an intranet app I could just create
documentation and on page back arrows but a webapp for general
consumption to the masses it's not likely that strategy will work.
I haven't looked into it very far but the Apple Store doesn't have
this problem and they don't appear to be using direct actions OR my
approach of overriding the "method" attribute of WOForm. I would
like to know how they did it as it seems to be the best of both worlds.
Thanks again for all the advice.
Mike

I have several component pages and they all have WOForm's in them.
Since WOForm uses http POST to submit the form data I decided to
try this:
MyForm: WOForm {
method = "get";
}
and it worked perfectly.
Does anyone know of any reason not to do this?
There are security concerns with confidential data. But if that's not
a concern for you go for it.
