redirect cgi and params

I am using cgi->redirect to redirect to another page and I wanted to
send param to the new script without adding it to the url and
displaying it in the url address bar. For example instead of showing
http://server/page1.cgi?var1=value1&var2=value2 I want it to say
http://server/page2.cgi

I tried this in my code (from page1),

$cgi = new CGI;
$cgi->param('var1','value1');
$cgi->param('var2','value2');
print $cgi->redirect(-url=>'/page2.cgi',
-target=>"_parent");

But it doesnt seem to work. Anybody know if I can do hide the params?
Thanks
