You are correct -- it cannot be done.
If there is no JavaScript, you can only "force" a POST by getting the user
to click on a FORM element, some how, some way...
*UNLESS*
Use PHP in a GET URL to call something like Rasmus' old 'posttohost'
function which will do the POST.
I don't know if that will "work" for what you are trying to achieve...
I guess the root question is *WHY* do you want to force a POST?
