I agree with you Eron. Our particular site is, I think, remarkably clean but it still has some warts. We're in the midst of re-engineering a code clean-up and two-orders-of magnitude user population scaleup. We pass a lot of information around both in session variables, from forms, and via redirection. You're suggesting some interesting techniques which I'll need to ponder a bit to decide how useful they are. On Fri, 9 May 2003, Eron Lloyd wrote:

Luckily you can easily specify whether you want your forms to use POST or GET by use of the 'method'-attribute of the form-element in HTML.

Yes, I forgot to mention that, too.
One of the things that makes Zope really amazing is just how clean it is possible to keep your URLs if you design the site's structure right. Doing the equivalent in a purely CGI/database environment like PHP or ASP produces awfully complicated URLs, that honestly aren't even worth writing out, much less trying to get an end-user to be able to understand. Zope is quite elegant in this respect.
