I have a VERY large search grid with close to 40 fields. Thingies like min_
max_ value , multiple choice, etc.
Apparently, and rightfully so, generated pages validate POSTED input , but
then a very frustrating thing happens: POSTED values get converted into a
GET request to the actual destination page. At this point the query string
becomes so long, my poor browser bails out.
I've tried to rename my fields into something shorter, but alas it foobars
anyway. What happend to an industry standard validation technics, i.e.
1. on the client side attempt to correct as many errors as possible, and
check for bad input on the DESTINATION page afterwards. Why do we need a
middleman, that does not even do the job right?!!
