FORM POST profile. Was: draft-sstc-bindings-05
Prateek,

It was nice to see the POST profile included in the 
bindings draft-05.

However, the "JavaScript security issue" can 
be made much less

of a choice by actually letting the user's browser 
do the "decision".

If JavaScript-based solutions must be as 
appendices, the following

code belongs there:

 

<HTML>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" 
>
<FORM METHOD="POST" 
ACTION="Destination-URL">
<NOSCRIPT>
<CENTER><H2>Your 
browser is JavaScript-disabled!</H2>
<H3>Click on the button 
below to manually continue the login</H3>
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" 
VALUE="Continue"></CENTER>
</NOSCRIPT>
<INPUT 
TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="SAMLAssertion" VALUE="Assertion in 
Base64-coding">
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>

 

Only to please (?) you we have added this fallback 
code to our SAML-inspired

Purple demo so you can try with or without 
JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Note: Don't try to run the "seller" app as it 
does not perform as expected

without JavaScript.  Only authentication 
works.

 

My referred-to document has been updated 
accordingly:
