RE: [PHP] w3c-compliant form-action parameters

Hi, Timo. Why can't use use hidden fields instead of appending the values to the url? It would be the same to access them via $_GET['para1'] $_GET['para2] (unless you were using post as your method, in which case it would simply be $_POST['varname']) if they were on the url or in hidden fields. Why can't you make this switch? Also, have you tried using the % entity for ampersand (%26 if memory serves me correct) instead of &amp; or the literal ampersand? So instead of mypage.php?para1=val1&para2=val2 you would use mypage.php?para1=val1%26para2=val2.

It doesn't like my <FORM action="mypage.php?para1=val1&para2=val2"> Changing & to &amp; got my page through the validator, but broke my app, which seems not to be getting any parameters over URL anymore. How can I fix that? PS.: Moving that information from the URL to hidden fields or cookies/sessions is not an option.
