I agree with J�rgen on this one. What I do is have the button link call a 
javascript which does the submit action. The link before is just going to 
build a URL and not do a form post.

so in your template use

        <form name="someform" method="post" action="$link.setAction("myClass")>

        </form>

        <script>

                doSubmit()
                {
                        document.someform.submit();
                }

        </script>
