You will need to use "data-cc" if you want it to be an HTML attribute on the <a> element and not break the validity of your HTML. You will need to write a custom javascript onclick handler if you want to pass data into the form on click, regardless of how you structure the data into the <a> element that link_to creates.

This post states you shouldn't use data-toggle when you want additional functionality, to prevent some other issues that will arise. You will likely need to build out a full onclick event handler yourself.
