Hi,
Code below sends values to the test1.php with button. Is there any way to use <a> link to do same thing?
Thanks
<form method="post" name="form">
<input type="text" name="name" />
<input type="submit" name="submit1" value="submit1" onclick="javascript: form.action='test1.php';" />
</form>Jump to PostIf you know the values you want to send
Static values
<a href="test1.php?name=value">Click Me</a>PHP populated values
<a href="test1.php?name=<? print $_GET['name'] ?>">Click Me</a>Javascript populated values
<head> <script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = function () { var input = document.getElementById('name'); var link …

var link = document.getElementById('link');
input.onchange = function () {

};
};
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="name" type="text" name="name" />
<a id="link" href="#">Click Me</a>
</body>Above javascript compacted some
window.onload = function () {
document.getElementById('name').onchange = function () {
document.getElementById('link').setAttribute( 'href', 'test1.php?name=' + this.value );
};
};Otherwise, there is no way to send data via POST with an <a> link which is by its nature a GET method.
Hope this helps

If not POST then, it is not suitable for me. Anyway, thanks for your answer
You can send method POST data via a form or via Ajax
You can submit the form via an <a> link if you want to do that
And you can have hidden input values in a form ...
Good luck
