You cannot make a POST submission from the location bar; if you have a form nothing prevents you from specifying the method for your submissions.

Hmm... it's lacking in some respects, if you want to go purist. Take this URL from the wiki: http://blablalist.com/createlist? submission=credentials& login=johnsmith& password=password& submission=create& name=Things+I+need+to+do+today That looks like a HTTP GET to me, in which case, it is missing on a key point of REST: the HTTP verbs. Instead, it should have been a POST to this URL (for instance): http://blablalist.com/lists/Things+I+need+to+do+today/ With this XML document in the POST payload: <list> <credentials> <login>johnsmith</login> <password>password</password> </credentials> </list> This is the kind of thing that I thought would be nice if it could be auto generated based on meta data :) Some extra info: http://www.xfront.com/REST-Web-Services.html 2007/2/7, Emmanuel Okyere <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Christian, > > Have you seen blabla list? this is a link to it's REST API: > http://rifers.org/wiki/display/BLA/REST+API > > You don't have to do anything special to return XML over HTTP; just > set your templates to describe the xml structs you want to return with > value placeholders for the dynamic bits, just as you would for an > xhtml output.
