Hi!

I believe it's not possible to create a POST request from a link using pure HTML. You'll have to use JavaScript, and the link must trigger some form on the page with the data you want on (hidden) fields.

To open a new window with the result, just set the target of the form to be a new window, like <form target="something">. For some glorious reason, this is not pure XHTML, but I couldn't care less, it works on all browsers I know.

I have a link that when the user clicks on it, I need to redirect the new window to a URL using a POST instead of a GET so that the parameters I'm sending aren't visible. From the googling that I've done, it seems like I have to use a WORedirect to get it to use a POST, but can't seem to figure
out how to do it.

I tried using the nice tutorial in David LeBar's blog from Dec 2004, but couldn't get it to work in my instance because I'm redirecting to a URL outside my application and it seemed to keep formatting the URL as a GET.

I'm sure by now Mike has a cool Wonder object that does this and I just
haven't found it. :)

Thanks,
Dawn
