OK. Try to POST to an incomplete URL (to the main URL of your
application). Example:

<FORM ACTION="http://www.net-frame.com/YourEnhydraApplication/";
METHOD="POST">

Note that the URL is incomplete - it should be
"/YourEnhydraApplication/YourDefaultUrl.po". But Enhydra is able to
redirect the request to the DefaultUrl automatically so we save a couple
of chars and get a bit more flexibility. Unfortunately it loses the POST
data during the internal redirection.

That's not relevant since Enhydra hides the difference between GET and
POST parameters from the application programmer.

I'll try to patch the Enhydra source then.
