Question

How can you post params to a page and call the target page without a form in html.

I have a link like this

<a href="#" class="post">Post</a>

and want post some information with jQuery

$('a.post').on('click', function() {    
$.ajax({
 'url'  : 'test.php',
 'type' : 'POST',
 'data' : {}
        }); 
});

This solution is working and i can post data but i cant goto the target page (‘test.php’). I want goto test.php and POST the data.

Why couldn’t you use the anchor to navigate in this situation? It seems to achieve your stated goal.

<a href="test.php?param1=a" class="post">Post</a>

Or if you really need to perform a post, use a form:

<form action="test.php" method="post">
  ...
</form>
