Using javascript to submit a form

[sammy]

Ok, so I want to submit a form with javascript. But the thing is, i want to use the post method. So that the information is hidden to the user.

<?
print($_POST['sammy']);

?>
<form name="myform" action="test1.php" method="POST">

<input type="hidden" name="sammy" value="sammy">
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:myform.submit()">CLICK HERE</a>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
<!--
function sub(){
         document.myform.submit();
}

//-->
</script>

when i click the link, it shows this url on the browser :
/test1.php?sammy=sammy

Ok, i found the way to do it.

<a href="#" onclick="javascript:myform.method='POST';javascript:myform.submit()">CLICK
HERE</a>

I had to manually change the form method property before i submitted, which i dont understand why, because shouldnt it be set when i did it in the form tag? I mean the action value was taken in, how come not the method?

wierd...eh?

Javascript is just weird in general.
