Way back at the beginning of time (1996 or so) I think it was suggested that GET be used to retrieve information and POST be used to make things happen, like debiting accounts or ordering things. Robots don't do POST, generally speaking. No doubt you have some good reason for using GET, like being able to use the Back button ... -- Andrew Daviel, TRIUMF, Canada Tel. +1 (604) 222-7376 [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Robots mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/robots
