Answer 1

Here's a simple small function that can be applied anywhere as long as you're using jQuery.

var redirect = 'http://www.website.com/page?id=23231';
$.redirectPost(redirect, {x: 'example', y: 'abc'});

// jquery extend function
$.extend(
{
    redirectPost: function(location, args)
    {
        var form = '';
        $.each( args, function( key, value ) {
            form += '';
        });
        $('
'+form+'
').appendTo('body').submit();
    }
});

Per the comments, I have expanded upon my answer:

// jquery extend function
$.extend(
{
    redirectPost: function(location, args)
    {
        var form = $('
');
        form.attr("method", "post");
        form.attr("action", location);

        $.each( args, function( key, value ) {
            var field = $('');

            field.attr("type", "hidden");
            field.attr("name", key);
            field.attr("value", value);

            form.append(field);
        });
        $(form).appendTo('body').submit();
    }
});
