11091	SSL POST hangs if view function does not use POST object	Ben Smith	nobody	"Here's how to reproduce:

1. Setup a simple view function.

def myview(request):
    return render_to_response('mytemplate.html')

2. Write a simple form containing one named value that POSTs to the view:
<form method=""POST"" action=""https://www.mysite.com/myview"">
  <input type=""hidden"" name=""param"" value=""value""/>
  <input type=""submit""/>
</form>

3.  Submit the form

The browser will send the POST but no data will be returned.  ssl_access.log and ssl_error.log will not have any record of the POST.

You can also do the submit with curl like this:

curl -v -d test=value https://www.mysite.com/myview

curl will just hang after telling you that it's submitted the request."		closed	HTTP handling	1.0		invalid	ssl form post		Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
