> There are two reasons to consider using POST vs GET methods that come to
Actually, I consider the biggest reason for using POST instead of GET is
that since GET requests are part of the URL, they are generally logged.
Consider the case where you pass sensitive data such as credit card
numbers through a GET request. Doesn't matter how well you encrypt your
database or your session, the credit card numbers still appear in clear
text in the web server logs.
