To be precise, I actually never mentioned transforming the _submission_ of the form to a GET request (or a redirect employing a GET request)! Requests changing server-side state should be POST-Requests plus you don´t want to have the parameters show up in the URL field of the browser, webserver logs etc. _IF_ you could send the POST request from your server to the external site (no authentication issues etc.) and _IF_ the external site used a Redirect-after-POST strategy, _THEN_ you could have re-send the redirect URL received from the external site (as answer to your POST request) onwards to your user. That´s what I tried to describe in strategy 2 - so there´s quite a few preconditions to meet to make strategy 2) a viable solution...
