RE: [PHP] get and post together

I've done that on occasion, but do be careful what you are sending via the GET. It has a size limit for one (maybe 1k chars?) and it is trivial for someone to modify. I generally use GET when I think it's a page "setup" the user may wish to bookmark (ie: page.php?orderby=name&descending=1&report=69 ) And POST for submitting data that I want to save. (ie: add a new user and all their glory). I have done a mixture, such as page.php?action=delete&id=5 But you have to be careful. I guess I always have some kind of user class and verify they have permissions to use the page and or delete said record anyways (logging failed attempts of course). > -----Original Message----- > From: Ray [mailto:ray@stilltech.net] > Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2007 8:19 PM > To: php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP] get and post together > > Hi all, > I've done something and I want to know if I should be ashamed :) > > I've set up a form with method="POST" and target ="page.php?foo=bar" > it works fine. $_POST[...] gives me the data I want and > $_GET['foo']=='bar'. > I freely admit it's an ugly kludge, but is it "bad"? > Ray > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > >
