You need to use javascript.

Try this:

<a href="#" onClick="document.formname.submit();">Click here to submit the
form</a>

Note that you must give the form a name for this to work, like this:

<form name="formname" action="results.cfm" method="post">
<input type="hidden" value="value" name="formvalue">
</form>

Make sure the name of the form in your javascript matches the actual form
name. Names are case-sensitive.
