[SMARTY] HTML Quickform passes values in URL

Hi

 

I have used the combination of HTML Quickform and Smarty template pretty
well. I always use the display() method of Smarty Template. 

 

But now for a specific use, for a simple login page with username and
password fields, I have to use the fetch() method and "echo" the result
returned by the fetch() method. The user interface is working fine, but when
I submit the form, a weird thing happens. All the values of the form are
being passed through the URL, like, "<url of the php
page>?lusername=testuser&lpasswd=testme&welcomeimg.x=0&welcomeimg.y=0"

 

This is a serious threat as the username and password are passed through the
URL. Also the form doesn't have any POST variables on submitting the form,
though I instantiate the form this way,    

$form = new HTML_QuickForm('form', 'POST', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

 

The same form works fine if I use display() method, but I can't use the same
for some reason. I believe that technically it should work fine when I use
the combination of "fetch()" and "echo".

 

Please let me know what I am missing here. Sorry I didn't provide any code
fragments as they are huge.

 

Thanks in advance

Vignesh.
