You can use jquery plugin to do this so easy:

$.post("/1.1/statuses/update.json",
{
    include_entities: "true",

},
function(data, status){
    alert("Data: " + data + "\nStatus: " + status);
});

There are a few ways.

If you want to do a formal POST, like a form submit, you can construct a form element on your page and submit it. There is a good example of how to do that in this post: JavaScript post request like a form submit

Otherwise, you can make use of AJAX, which is an asynchronous HTTP request standard, which can be done with vanilla JavaScript or by using a third-party library like JQuery. Mozilla has a great resource for learning how to use AJAX at this link: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/AJAX/Getting_Started

You can also use this: https://github.com/floscodes/JS/blob/master/Requests.js

You can easily send a http-Request. Just use:

HttpRequest("https://example.com", method="post", data="yourkey=yourdata");

That's it! It should even work if the site is CSRF-protected.

Or just send a GET-Request by using

HttpRequest("https://example.com", method="get");
