[HttpClient] Post parameters
After experienced undesired behavior and looking at the
code it appears that POST parameters are also being passed
to the redirected page.
I've tried fixing this with a little tweak, but I am
realizing that it may be more involved than I had
originally thought.
Has anyone else experienced this? I'm using the 5/28
nightly build.

Should I go ahead and fix PostMethod so that the order of parameters in
the automatically-generated query string is faithful to the order in which
the parameters were set? As I said, I'm new to open source, so if you
would like me to go ahead and make the change, I'd appreciate a pointer to
a "how to take part in open source link".

I think there is a Map in the commons collections project
that stores things in the order added. Check that out. It
should be a very simple change.
I just looked. It's called a SequencedHashMap. I might
try that too since it could be part of my problem.

Re: [HttpClient] Post parameters
Posted by Dominic Hughes <do...@theory.Stanford.EDU>.
I posted a related HttpClient problem on 26 May, involving POST
parameters.
After investigation using logging, my friend and I observed that some
sites are so badly implemented that they are sensitive to the order of
parameters posted in the query string. To make PostMethod robust for such
sites, we re-implemented our own version of PostMethod, allowing us to
control the ordering of parameters when the query string is formed.
I'm a complete newbie to open source. Who do I discuss this problem with
in order to determine whether I should go in and de-bug PostMethod myself?
Or is there some official bug list to post on, so that that someone with
more authority can fix this bug? Please let me know how I can be the most
helpful.
