What a lot of good ideas from one simple post (POST?). Thank you. Charles ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Hassalevris" <bluepaul@earthlink.net> To: "Dennis Allison" <allison@sumeru.stanford.EDU> Cc: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Saturday, May 10, 2003 12:44 AM Subject: Re: [Zope] GET vs. POST
Dennis,
A good while ago Jim Penny posted a message that described a really interesting coding construct. One of it benefits is that the URL always stays the same.
I never thanked Jim for posting the original msg but I've put this technique to good use!
The idea is the you turn your INDEX_HTML into something of an infinite loop.
If is filled with statements like:
<DTML-IF current_state = 'MAIN' and action = 'VENDORS'> <dtml-var vendorsForm> <DTML-IF current_state = 'MAIN' and action = 'EMPLOYEES'> <dtml-var employeesForm>
Anyway, you can find original article at

My original question was to find a way to eliminate the display of information in the browser's address window. Typically this comes from passing information with a URL either by having an actual hyperlink or through using a redirect and passing parameter with it.
