annoying Chrome error when going back
« on: Tue, 14 May 2013, 23:07:54 »
Do any of you get the annoying Google Chrome error after you search for something in the forums, click on a result then hit 'Back' in your browser?

Error:

"Confirm Form Resubmission

This webpage requires data that you entered earlier in order to be properly displayed. You can send this data again, but by doing so you will repeat any action this page previously performed. Press Reload to resend that data and display this page."

I get that all the time from Chrome, and not just on Geekhack.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

That is a feature to prevent you from buying something twice. It doesn't seem to know the difference between a checkout page and a forum search though.

I'm camping for a week, and moving twice in a month. I'll get back to you when I can (If I don't then just send me another PM).

I think Firefox, Opera and earlier Netscape browsers did that too.

There are two kinds of HTTP requests: GET and POSTS. Either will retrieve a web page.
GET requests are supposed to just, well, "get" content. POST requests are supposed to do actions.  When you post a comment, your browser sends a POST request.
