Is there anyway to encrypt POST/GET variables before sending them?

I'm creating a simple security protocol for a website. In the login form, the user inputs their username and password. However, when the information is sent as $_GET or $_POST it has no security at all, e.g: http://www.mysite.com/sendinfo.php?user=blah&pass=password123 . Is there anyway to encrypt data clientside before sending it to the server? Thank you!

If you want guaranteed encryption without requiring client side code the only mechanism is SSL (i.e. an https: URL).
