Re: RE: Transform get to post
To avoid the JavaScript dependency and simplify things a bit, couldn't you just make your "leave our section" link be a submit button for a form (with method=POST) in which you've written all these variables into hidden input fields?

Basically, I have some plain html that is viewable only through authentication. That works fine and dandy. Now, if these authenticated users are going to leave my secure section and visit a different internal site which is also secure, I have to pass the variables along to their authentication and the only way their process will receive them is through a POST. So, by clicking "leave our section" was going to run them through a servlet (or jsp) which would set the variables, set itself as POST and redirect to the other place. Now that I type all that out, A) my appologies for being off topic. B) it seems like overkill c) Thanks for all the thoughts that have trickled in as I wrote this.

RE: Transform get to post
Well, this seems kinda silly, but you could build a response page with an HTML FORM which uses POST, and has all the values set the way you want, then use JavaScript to execute the Submit event on the form. Like This FORM NAME="FOO" METHOD=POST ACTION="somewhere.jsp" !-- Your elements -- /FORM SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2" !-- window.document.FOO.submit(); -- /SCRIPT -Original Message- From: Charles Talleyrand [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2001 6:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Transform get to post Pardon my ignorance, but is there a way to transform a get request into a post?
