GET should be used if and only if there are no side effects.Many database searches have no visible side-effects and make ideal applications of query forms.The GET method is designed for getting information (a document, a chart, or the results from a database query).
POST method is designed for posting information (a credit card number, some new chart data, or information that is to be stored in a database).If the service associated with the processing of a form has side effects (for example, modification of a database or subscription to a service), the method should be POST.
