Form Post Programmatically VB.Net

[RFH Reseller: creativeworks]

I'm sure I've previoulsy seen an example of a form POST being created programmactically and firing off to the required page...

I'm trying to run a button onCommand which will bring some elements together and send them via post rather than a querystring...

Any clues would be fantastic!...

Hi

Some time ago this is something I came up against whislt trying to pass data to Pay Pal shopping cart.

Using querystring I felt looked horrible and there is a limit to the amount of data that could be passed this way so I wanted to pass date using the form button as you can on a standard html page, well as u have no doubt found out that all that happens with a html form button on a Asp.net form it just causes a post back not much use for what I wanted. I eventually came across a bit of code that did just what I wanted which I have now made up into a server control, to save me having to write the code each time, I have a bug to fix which is that the button that invokes the post control cannot be wraped in a Ajax Update panel or it does not work.
