http to https with POST Parameters impossible?

I had been searching for some time whether it is possible to redirect http to https with POST parameters. It seems that we are out of luck, especially we are still on 9.1.2. I notice that there is new command like HTTP::retry, HTTP::request which are only available in 9.2. Some reference saying that the POST can be pass along such as http://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=53&forumid=5&tpage=1&view=topic&postid=27548. But I am not sure is it still valid for http to https redirection, especially they are using HTTP::retry. Any one had tried? BTW, has anyone worked out a way to do it before version 9.2?

 

 

Some also mentioned that it can be achieved with STREAM command. Since I am very new to iRule, I would be appreciated if any expert here can illustrate with some example how this can be done. Thanks!
