Actually in the previous post he is specifying an anchor, so the only
way to get this info over in a post is to construct a form with hidden
fields and maybe use a gif as the submit or maybe you can make the link
submit with javascript. not sure on that. but if there is only one
anchor on the page, then a button might be ok. however, if you have a
bunch of anchors, then a bunch of buttons might not be suitable.

I think you can do a GET for up to 2k (or maybe it's 8k) now - a few
browser and server versions back it used to be about 256 chars. Anyway,
500 chars is probably ok. But, a post is probably better than a get for
large amounts of data.
