Modifying Yaron's (standard) method slightly, just add a big text to
the form that says 'click save to see a list of like-minded drinkers'
(or whatever). Then they know that they don't have to fill in any
details about Dr Pepper... not sure what happens if the form has no
data fields...
Otherwise you could edit the template for the form where the user adds
there favourite drink and code an explicit link for the parameter. You
can do what you want within that template, its only convention that
means it sets out a little table of property values.
HTH,
