[binarycloud-dev] Battle Royal - GET versus POST

[Alby L. <al...@th...>]

Justin,

I am one of those lazy coders, but I can't stand using GET but often do to
ensure the integrity of my variable names and values. This has been a thorn
in my side and I would like a method to handle this insecurity as well.

My initial thought would be to include a debug option to globally echo all
post varnames and values to the page. This is not a holistic solution
however as I am often using servlet like pages that only include code and
call a header ("Location: snafu.php"); when my logic is done.

Anyone have any other ideas/problems to contribute to this?

"
Now, I hate GET vars because of their security problem.
As far as I am concerned, their only utility is for
bookmarking, or lazy coders.  They are a definite security risk if you
have weaknesses in your design.
