Is this correct about ajax POST?

Question

Could you confirm I understand this correctly.

However, always use POST requests when:

- A cached file is not an option (update a file or database on the

server)

Using POST, the file specified in xmlhttp.open("POST","ajax_test.asp",true); will not be cached (sent to \Temporary Internet Files) ? It will stay on the server only?

If this is true, is the updated html file after calling ajax POST, being updated in the \Temporary Internet Files ?

Am I missing any other important information of this mechanism?

Thank You.

Answer 1

Correct assumption if you use POST, you have GET in your call.

xmlhttp.open("POST","ajax_test.asp",true);
