Can I pass a value and submit a form from the same hyperlink?
I am trying to create a list of links that would make up the elements of a form (will be used as a search feature). 

Basically, each link in the list represents a search category, so as users click on a link, their search results will be filtered. 

I would need a category value to be able to be passed whenever someone clicks on one of those category links, and also have each link act as the form submit as well. Is that possible?

(There may be easier ways to accomplish this, however with the CMS and search module I'm using, this will have to do.)
