Hi,

Nope, The Web, being a disconnected architecture, means that you'll have to post to send the details back to the server. You can "autopost" rather than have a user press a button. And you dont have to process the form as though the user had pressed the ok button by noting how the form was posted.

Be aware that you have to maintain state throughout this process.

Cheers,
Tim.
