You could do it without disrupting the client by using an iframe, but
not all browsers support this. In fact if JavaScript is turned off in
the browser you would have a hard time doing it at all. To use the
iframe you'd need to load another page into it with JavaScript that
would fill in some (hidden) form fields and submit the form.
You could also do that on the main page - generate the script in the
page load event if it isn't a postback, have it fill in the form and
submit it automatically. The problem with this approach is that it
messes with the funcationality of the Back button and can make the
user believe they are "trapped" on your site.
