alt Hacker NewsOne oddity of forms: the result of a form POST is a page that has a location (the URL) but that cannot loaded via that location. As far as I know, the fact that the page is a POST and not a GET is not stored anywhere visible to the user or to JS. And refresh works oddly.
If method=QUERY were added, there would be a new variety of this weirdness.
At least browsers wouldn't have to warn users that they'd be resubmitting data if they reload the page after submitting a query form, since query requests are intended to be idempotent
