Carol,

You can change the links to run JavaScript code instead of simply open a URL
like this:

<form name="frmLink1" style="display:none" action="/cgi-bin/broker.exe"
method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="_program" value="mylib.myprogram.sas">
<input type="hidden" name="service" value="default">
...
</form>

<a href="javascript:document.frmLink1.submit()">Submit form</a>

In this manner, links become virtual buttons that submit data via the POST
method and thus somewhat hide the form parameters from the user.

Subject: SAS/Intrnet question

Hello all.  I have a question that may or may not be relevant to this
group. If not I apologize.  I am creating an application using SAS/intrnet
(for the first time) and I am using sessions.  How can I use anchor tags in
my programs without displaying the session id, etc in the URL?  I know if I
use forms I can use method=post.  Is there a similiar way to do this with
anchor tags?  I really don't want to change all anchor tags to push
buttons.

Thanks for your help!

Carol
