Linkbutton with forrm data?

[Al Cadalzo]

I'm generating hyperlinks in a datagrid. These links are to various sites
and all use querystring values. We now have a requirement to link to a web
site's Advanced Search page, but the parameters have to be passed to it as
form data in a POST. I've done this before using WebRequest/Response and
WebClient classes, but never from a linkButton. Is it possible to do this?

Thanks,
Al

Hi,

Possible but with ugly trick:

You should catch link click event on client side and using DHTML to
create new form with new inputs that will hold send data. Then you have
to submit the newly create form...

Thanks Natty. I took a look at that article.
I'm going to suggest this method to my boss and see what he thinks.
