As a servlet-newbie, who has only written a couple of simple servlets, I am
puzzled by this. HJC seems to imply that if I change my FORM METHOD from
POST to GET I am going to be in deep yogurt, but the few servlets I've
written handle that (I thought!) by rather simplistically having doGet call
doPost. Is HJC overriding the service methods (upstream from
doPost/doGet), and manipulating the QUERY_STRING/POST input stream on his
own, is he concerned about the limits of the size of the Q_S, or what?
