no I cannot use a post or any form data in the requests --> all GET
REQUESTS. JUST THE URL as a string.

SEE THE OTHER THREAD.

It's a pretty common idiom.  Before Zope, and even before 
Bobo, Amos came up with a nifty hack called StickyForms, 
now incorporated into (non-Zope) htmlgen.  

With DTML you could use a hidden form variable to pass an
argument when you don't want the server to maintain the
argument's value.  Is this what you're referring to?
