Ah ha!
I think I found where the problem lies(and also our confusing
disconnect). Even though you and I were doing pretty much the same
thing, your case worked fine in the instance where the parameter being
submitted in the self submitting form was only one word. If you changed
your test case to something like hi there (which is what I was using
in my testing), it breaks. Why? The parameter needs to be urlencoded
first.
Thank you very much for your help and suggestions, Toby! I really
appreciate your time and effort in helping me to see the light.

Hi Sam,
I did that only because I was too lazy to upload and did the testing
locally so I could grab the value in Javascript.
Of course it works with post as well...
test.html
form name=myform1 method=get action=
input type=hidden name=myvar1 value=testing
script
window.open(test2.html, test);
/script
/form
test2.html
BODY onLoad=document.forms[0].submit();
form name=myform1 method=post action=test.php
INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=do_preview VALUE=1
script
document.write('INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=itworks
VALUE='+opener.myform1.myvar1.value+''); /script
/FORM
/BODY
test.php
?
print_r($_POST);
Outputs:
Array ( [do_preview] = 1 [itworks] = testing )
