> HTTP GET should be "safe" (because there are systems > and operations that rely on it being so) I would suggest clarifying this by adding the sentence: "Systems should NOT however, rely on HTTP GET to be 'safe'" Advising otherwise would be misleading, particularly in the case or URLs with query strings. There is a reason that most web crawlers, many other caches, etc. exclude URLs that have querystrings -- the fact is that most systems do NOT depend on *all* GETs to be "safe". > (e.g., with query strings).Received on Wednesday, 24 April 2002 00:11:15 GMT
