There's no way around JS. And you'll likely have to implement a handler
for this in your plugin, too, because JS usually can't reach out to
servers other than the one where it was loaded from for security reasons.
So you'll need:
- a JS snippet calling LMS
- a page handler in your LMS plugin calling the remote server
