Jochen Kemnade updated TAP5-1285:
---------------------------------


This issue has been last updated about 1.5 years ago and has no information about the versions that are affected. That makes it hard to determine whether it is still relevant.
If the issue still persists with the current stable version (5.3.7) or the most recent development preview of Tapestry (5.4-beta-6), both of which are available from Maven Central, please update it as soon as possible, adding the respective version(s) to the issue's "Affects Version/s".

> The Tapestry form component is currently only supporting the "POST" method.
> The POST method is usually associated with changing the "model" on the server side, e.g. in REST applications, POST indicates that a resource is modified, if I am not mistaken.
> The lack of GET support makes it necessary to use POST also for simple queries, such as a search field, where the model is not modified.
> This is a) semantically irritating, since for example a search query will not modify state and
> b) requires extra "work", for example a redirect-after-post, where it should not be necessary.
> Since Tapestry aspires to make the simple things easy, the difficult things possible, I think it should provide first-class support for the GET method.
