Hidden HTTP Post in Javascript

Question

I'm trying to do an HTTP Post using Javascript. I'm using the code reported here: JavaScript post request like a form submit

and it works fine.

But I need to remain in the same page while the HTTP Post is sent.

How can I do? Thx

I know it seems to be the perpetual hammer (Because it is) but try using jQuery. then you can do a real simple jQuery post

$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: url,
data: data,
success: success
dataType: dataType
});

or the shortest method if you don't need a return..

$.post("postTo.php", { name: $('#name').val(), data: $('#data').val(); } );

AJAX

$('.button').click(function() { $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "whateveryourphpfileis.php", data: { whatyouare: "sending" } }) });
