boo_radley has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

While working on a CGI project, it's been suggested that we submit some information via GET method, and other information via POST, e.g. have the web page submit username & sundry data through POST, but still rely on GET to determine the flow of the script like : http://www.bogusurl.com/gne.cgi&action=go. This seems like a bad idea, since the FORM element accepts only one or the other, but not both. I'd appreciate any thoughts or experiences.
