Sending POST Using <a href=...> instead of the submit button?

Hi,
Can I use the ordinary <a></a> hyperlinks to send POST messages in XHTML or HTML and PHP instead of the usual forms and the usual submit button ???

What about using JavaScript to submit hidden forms when the link is clicked? :)

For instance..
<form action="post.php" id="frm" method="post" style="display: none;">
<input type="text" name="i_am_a_hidden_field" value="haha hidden" />
</form>
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="javascript: document.getElementById('frm') .submit()">I will post to post.php!</a>

<a href="#" onclick="go();">blah</a>

now you can define go() to do whatever you want (post, put, get, delete, whatever)
