Question

I want to send a value with a link in a submit form. The form method is post and I like to keep it that way, otherwise my problem would have been pretty easy using something like “?myvale=1”.

So this code illustrates what I wan’t:

<a href="#" name="submit value="1" onclick="document.editDelete.submit()" class="button icon edit">Test</a>

How can I accomplish what I want with javascript or something like that?

Answer 1

Why not set a hidden form value in a submit handler?

<form ...>
  <input type="hidden" name="theParam"/>
  ...

<a href="#" ... onclick="handler()">Test</a>

function handler() {
  document.editDelete.theParam.value = "the value";
  document.editDelete.submit();
}

(Adjust names/etc. to match your HTML.)
