		rvnx on Feb 13, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Cool URIs can be ugly (2023) value[]=A&value[]=B&value[]=C is an idea that apparently came out of PHP in ~2000, not of standards. So, people who learnt programming in 2000, until ~2010 it's quite normal to see the commas as delimiter of multiple parameters.

As far as I know, the "standard" way is value=A&value=B&value=C. This is what comes out of a plain form submission.
