How do you transfer information via post when using REQUEST['RESPONSE'].redirect? How do you get Zope to use POST as its default rather than GET? On Fri, 9 May 2003, Passin, Tom wrote:

Zope uses use GET for URL/cgi information transfer.
Not so, Zope can use both GET and POST, and REQUEST works the same way for both.
Most browsers expose the information transfered via a GET in the displayed URL. Some of our users find this confusing. Is there a simple way to avoid the URL display as users traverse the site?
The Web Way is to submit information to the server (especially data that might change the state of the server or its data) using POST, otherwise to retrieve information with GET. There is nothing to stop you from using a POST for submitting length form data if you want to.
Sounds like there is some crucial bit of information you have not told us.
