That would be a very bad idea overall because it goes against the web basics. If you would pass and store these values using a query string, it would do so every time the webpage is requested. If the user would bookmark that web page it would update the values every time without the user understanding why they are changed back every time.

Have a look at this link for more info on the difference between GET and POST:

Good luck!
