This is one of those situations where I feel like I'm missing a crucial keyword to find the answer on Google... I have a bag of parameters and I want to make the browser navigate to a GET URL with the parameters. Being a jQuery user, I know that if I wanted to make an ajax request, I would simply do: $.getJSON(url, params, fn_handle_result); But sometimes I don't want to use ajax. I just want to submit the parameters and get a page back. Now, I know I can loop the parameters and manually construct a GET URL. For POST, I can dynamically create a form, populate it with fields and submit. But I'm sure somebody has written a plugin that does this already. Or maybe I missed something and you can do it with core jQuery. So, does anybody know of such a plugin? EDIT: Basically, what I want is to write: $.goTo(url, params); And optionally $.goTo(url, params, "POST"); Source: Tips4all
