This is not the case.  The HttpServlet class defines separate methods
for each HTTP request.  So there is a doGet() and a doPost() method
to handle forms and the container will direct the request to the
appropriate method.  The developer would have to purposefully make
them interchangeable by calling doPost() from within the doGet()
method, or visa-versa.  See: http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/2.1/
servlet-2.1.pdf for more info on the spec.



You're right. I take that back.  What I was thinking about was the spec
requires that POST parameters in the body be treated the same way as
parameters in the URL, even though the HTTP spec doesn't specify how POST
parameters should be encoded.
