No jquery jsp asp ajax or anything.  Just would like an HTML tag/coded anchor or whatever,  to be able to have a simple URL hyperlink that uses post instead of get so that parameters can be SSL encrypted instead of sent in the main http  header of a GET

I don't see any way to do that without using javascript, a form, or similar.

There are no attributes of an anchor link that I see in the reference that can be used to identify information to be sent in the body of a post.

ETA:  Here is the <a> anchor reference:

You can use a single form "submit" button with hidden parameters for POST.  No problem

HTML form is the simplest way to get "POST" instead of get.

The question lacks context that could help find a more elegant solution though.
