POST method instead of GET for <a></a>

[ahayes1ic]

Is there a way to use POST method for this link:

<a href="login.php?action=new_user" >Register</a>

instead of the GET method that is currently represented?

Or do I have to use a form and button.

Cheers

You either need a form with a button, or a bunch of Javascript to attach a form submission event to the act of clicking on the <a> link. Either way, PHP isn't going to be relevant.

you can do this:
<form name='form1' method='POST' action='login.php'>
<input type='hidden' name='action' value='new_user'>
<a href='#' onClick='document.form1.submit()'>Register</a>
</form>
