User · Answer

Using window location href it s not possible to send a POST request   What you have to do is to set up a form tag with data fields in it  set the action attribute of the form to the URL and the method attribute to POST  then call the submit method on the form tag

I use a very different approach to this   I set browser cookies in the client that expire a second after I set window location href  This is way more secure than embedding your parameters in the URL  The server receives the parameters as cookies  and the browser deletes the cookies right after they are sent  const expires   new Date Date now     1000  toUTCString   document cookie    oauth-username user123  expires   expires   window location href    https foo com oauth google link

Add a form to your HTML  something like this    lt form style  display  none  action   the url  method  POST  id  form  gt     lt input type  hidden  id  var1  name  var1  value     gt     lt input type  hidden  id  var2  name  var2  value     gt   lt  form gt    and use JQuery to fill these values  of course you can also use javascript to do something similar       var1   val value1       var2   val value2     Then finally submit the form      form   submit      on the server side you should be able to get the data you sent by checking var1 and var2  how to do this depends on what server-side language you are using

Short answer  no  window location href is not capable of passing POST data   Somewhat more satisfying answer  You can use this function to clone all your form data and submit it   var submitMe   document createElement  form    submitMe action    YOUR URL HERE      Remember to change me submitMe method    post   submitMe enctype    multipart form-data   var nameJoiner             The string used to join form name and input name      so that you can differentiate between forms when      processing the data server-side  submitMe importFields   function form       for k in form elements           if input   form elements k                if input type   submit  amp  amp                        input nodeName   INPUT                        input nodeName   TEXTAREA                        input nodeName   BUTTON                        input nodeName   SELECT                                           var output   input cloneNode true                   output name   form name   nameJoiner   input name                  this appendChild output                                      Do submitMe importFields form element   for each of the three forms you want to submit    This function will add each form s name to the names of its child inputs  If you have an  lt input name  email  gt  in  lt form name  login  gt   the submitted name will be login name    You can change the nameJoiner variable to something other than   so it doesn t conflict with your input naming scheme  Once you ve imported all the necessary forms  do submitMe submit

Have you considered simply using Local Session Storage  -or- Depending on the complexity of what you re building  you could even use indexDB   note    Local storage and indexDB are not secure - so you want to avoid storing any sensitive   personal data  i e names  addresses  emails addresses  DOB etc  in either of these   Session Storage is a more secure option for anything sensitive  it s only accessible to the origin that set the items and also clears as soon as the browser   tab is closed         IndexDB is a little more  but not much more  complicated and is a 30MB noSQL database built into every browser  but can be basically unlimited if the user opts in  -  next time you re using Google docs  open you DevTools -  application -  IndexDB and take a peak   spoiler alert  it s encrypted    Focusing on Local and Session Storage  these are both dead simple to use      To Set  sessionStorage setItem   key     value         e g  sessionStorage setItem   formData      name   Mr Manager   company   Bluth s Frozen Bananas                     Get The Data  const fromData   sessionStorage getItem   key              e g   after navigating to next location  const fromData   sessionStorage getItem   formData         Remove  sessionStorage removeItem   key         Remove  all  saved data sessionStorage sessionStorage clear        If simple is not your thing -or- maybe you want to go off road and try a different approach all together -  you can probably use a shared web worker    y know  just for kicks

As it was said in other answers there is no way to make a POST request using window location href  to do it you can create a form and submit it immediately   You can use this function   function postForm path  params  method        method   method     post        var form   document createElement  form        form setAttribute  method   method       form setAttribute  action   path        for  var key in params            if  params hasOwnProperty key                 var hiddenField   document createElement  input                hiddenField setAttribute  type    hidden                hiddenField setAttribute  name   key               hiddenField setAttribute  value   params key                 form appendChild hiddenField                        document body appendChild form       form submit       postForm  mysite com form    arg1   value1   arg2   value2       https   stackoverflow com a 133997 2965158
