What exactly is a PUT method? At last check, there was no such method. Perhaps netscape implements it as an alias to 'POST', but to the best of my knowledge there are TWO methods: POST and GET. PUT sounds like a netscape-ism, and probably should be avoided in the name of standards. :) --john On Fri, 16 Aug 1996, Jeremey Barrett wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > > Question: Is there something odd about the PUT method that Netscape > does not allow it to be used as a method on a form? > > I have the following: > > <form method="PUT" action="some_url"> > <input type="submit" value="submit"> > </form> > > And when I click 'Submit' a GET request is sent to the web server. > > Any help appreciated. > > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= > Jeremey Barrett > Senior Software Engineer jeremey@forequest.com > The ForeQuest Company http://www.forequest.com/ > > PGP Key fingerprint = 3B 42 1E D4 4B 17 0D 80 DC 59 6F 59 04 C3 83 64 > PGP Public Key: http://www.forequest.com/people/jeremey/pgpkey.html > > "less is more." -- Mies van de Rohe. > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: 2.6.2 > > iQCVAwUBMhULmC/fy+vkqMxNAQHfZgQAvVQI0vF17vEzDMDtCW7bYOgwwqKEo4gW > sg0ZCR8Q/n5rRlISEmFsyNfBK9O/rwWA7sP+7GC4phdHv4oyMLSxv6ZR3ZIFTxAm > D64fXaKiGVbfzE26hCfSSdxZ8pTggemXiNrYLPvQZ+P5zi/FPnqI3mpQ5jfVbW5+ > poEeEWzFoYs= > =kf1S > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > >
