What you want to do is use single-submit-button forms, not links.

Ooh, I hate those. Hello slow web-application, please force me to
click on your slow slow buttons a dozen times to change a few settings.
How's that any different from doing it with links, in terms of user
interaction? If you really want to, you can even style a button to look
exactly like a link.
A link (or a button, I suppose) doesn't have to submit a GET or POST
request directly, it can go via some Javascript doodad that does it in
the background. Of course, you do also need a non-Javascripty alternative.
