The only way to do this is by using the GET method. Then you can append
the variables and their values on to the end of the link:

<a href="http://wherever.com/page?var=val&var2=val2&stuff=whatever">Here's
a link</a>

There is a limit to the amount of information that can be transmitted this
way. It is server-dependant, and I have *never* seen hard figures. 

There is no way to submit a POSTed form by clicking on a link -- which in
my opinion, is one of the main problems with maintaining state on the web.
