a) MIXING 'post AND query-string
Yes indeed.
There is an example of "mixing" 'post method and query-string at URL
http://rebol.mksa.net/make-cgi/form-mix.php
the output of the action script "cgi.reb" of this form
probes a REBOL object showing how mixed entries are processed by make-cgi.r
Can be usefull to quickly add some config values thru the URL of the form's
action, etc.
without the need for hidden fields in the form it self.
As another sidenote, mind that your query-string and/or posted data
do NOT need to be a set of well formed form fields values.
Instead, your script on your server may decide to retrieve and to proceed
it-self the data as in
http://rebol.mksa.net/make-cgi/cgi.reb?this+is+your+query+string+in+your+proprietary+format
b) LOCAL DEBUGGING
See the refinements /test-query-string , /test-posted-data and /test-multipart
added in the brand new version 0.1.2 of make-cgi.r at
http://rebol.mksa.net/make-cgi/
(or read the intensively commented source code, near the end)
