Hello,
I ran into an annoying issue:
I have a list of items, paged which is working properly.
The customer wants also to filter the data by several criteria.
The filtering is done by sending through POST a form with several
criteria and their values.
Now it comes the problem:
the paging is done
Why not submit the form through GET and include the current page in the form?

I don't think is possible to send values to server using a GET.
So how can i submit the form trough GET?

Except for query string, of course.

an html form with method=get will serialize it's values (the ones with
name atttribute) to the query string.The most obvious example
(which reassembles your situation) is google's search box.

One reason for which i don't like query string, for this instance, is
that there are 11 fields usable in filter and the query string can get
quite long.
But i suppose i can use this, in lack of other choices.

if the whole filter is in the query string - think of what your user can
acheive - bookmarkabilitythat is - you gain a saved search capability, by
simply telling the user to bookmark the url with the filter.
plus the user can send the url to a friend

it seems that in this case, the query string was the good option.
i've converted the POST into GET and it solved all my problems.
and here it started to rain :))
