Hi

I need to add a link from one page to another and send a parameter NOT using
the Get

What would be normally the way to do that? Can I use the post method and
how?

Thank you,
Samuel
 
The only option you have is to use POST. A link would have to trigger a
javascript method that invoked the this.form.submit(); option.

<a href="javascript: this.form.submit();">link</a>

And the params you need to pass would have to be form fields to be extracted
from the request object at destination

You can do it using POST with some javascript involved.
1. Make empty form
<form myname="myform">
<input type=hidden name=parameter value=1>
</form>

2. Your link should look like
<a href="javascript:document.myform.submit();">this is a link to submit
form</a>

Click to expand...

In addition to the POST methods:

If both pages are within the same application, then you could also use
a linkbutton (instead of a hyperlink). In the Click handler (at the
server), store the value for the other page in Session and issue a
Redirect to that page. That next page can retrieve the value from the
Session, it will not show up in the URL.
