FORM's METHOD can be set to either GET or POST. | |
GET, which is the default setting, passes the form values on the URL. | |
The following simple form can be used as an example. | |
| |
When POST is used, the browser contacts the URL specified in the ACTION property and sends the data in the body of the HTTP request. | |
If you are sending large amounts of form information to the server, the POST method should be used. | |
The POST method is also useful for keeping your data from being easily seen. |
