表单，发布和提交按钮

Question

I feel a little silly asking this but I wanted everyones opinion on it.

I want to submit a page, target itself, on the press of a button but carrying one piece of data with it.

Example:

Edit | Delete

On the click on edit, I want the page to reload with $_POST['example'] === "edit" or something. I don't want to use $_GET and I don't want to use the ugly submit button.

Any ideas?

You should probably go ahead and use submit buttons, but use CSS to change how they look. For example:

<input class="aslink" type="submit" />

.aslink {
    background: transparent;
    border: none;
    cursor: pointer;
    text-decoration: underline;
}
