I already changed the forms yesterday and set an action in all of them - 
the URL should change to something like "screen/Home" after you submitted 
the login-form.
I don't know how we could avoid the re-post: If the page resulted from a 
post request the browser (at least netscape) will repeat the last request 
when you click on reload - and if this last operation was a HTTP Post, 
netscape will ask you if you want to re-post the data.

I think there is no "general approach", (and there are only a few, 
unimportant forms in jetspeed). I personally try to avoid JavaScript 
whenever possible, but it might make sense for more sopisticated form 
handling? I'm not an JavaScript guru, I have to admit...

What are the opinions regarding how forms ought to be handled? Let's define 
what the general aproach should be!
