Why doesn't IE Navigate() work on a POST?

I am creating an instance of IE like so
var ie = new ActiveXObject("InternetExplorer.application")

When I call ie.Navigate and include post data, I always get a GET call
instead of a POST. The same call works from within a client-server
app, but it doesn't work from within an html page. Any ideas out
there???

Thanks,
Rick

IIRC you can't create the type of data you need to contain the POSTed
DATA.

What are you doing with it anyway, there's probably a better method?
