Yes, you can certainly have that. However, if you want to be able to pass that data along to the next page you will have to use a Javascript href in order to do it. For example, <a href="javascript:document.formName.submit()">click here</a>. Furthermore, if you want to be able to link to different pages all by submitting the same form, then you will have to use Javascript to modify the 'action' attribute of the form, which can get ugly.

    Oh. Is there any way I can have it send it no matter where I click? I want to be passing the values around the forms on the pages afterwards too...

      I think your best option is to pass the session id on the request, with a parameter or a path component:

      http://my.site.net/the/path/to/the/page/SESSIONID

      or

      http://my.site.net/the/path/to/the/page?sid=SESSIONID

      or something to that effect.

      I personally prefer the first method, since it's less confusing to spiders and bots (and I'd like my site to be indexed by search engines).
