<FORM NAME=form1 METHOD=POST action=some.jsp> <INPUT TYPE=text NAME=first VALUE=First> <INPUT TYPE=text NAME=second VALUE=Second> </FORM> When

<FORM NAME="form1" METHOD="POST" action="some.jsp">
        <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="first" VALUE="First">
        <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="second" VALUE="Second">

    </FORM>

When the form is submitted in the background a POST method is sent to that jsp page with the parameters.

What I am trying to do is that I have an ajax call to a local mediator jsp page which should then take those parameters and post to a page on another domain (this is for me to circumvent the cross-domain problem with ajax calls in IE8).

How would I do an explicit post? Something that takes a URL and the parameters?

    If all you are having issue with is posting the form, it is as simple as 

    document.forms['form1'].submit()

    EDIT: In that case, see Using java.net.URLConnection to fire and handle HTTP requests for how to make a POST or GET request. I would recommend using request.getParameterMap() and iterating over that, dropping those parameters into the new outbound request.
