This is pretty trivial with Gears as well. Look at the database example on the Gears API (I think it's a reminder list). Basically instead of submitting the form to a server, you set the onclick to execute a javascript function, which looks at the form variables and acts accordingly. So the data never really gets POSTed, but rather read by the javascript and acted upon, as by definition, POSTs are always sent to a server (either as AJAX or a traditional submit). http://code.google.com/apis/gears/samples/hello_world_database.html
You'll need to download the example to get the HTML, but it's just a trivial form.
