What does "Post " and "Get" method do in html forms??

Question

<form method= "post" >

Answer 1

The method attribute specifies how to send form-data (the form-data is sent to the page specified in the action attribute). The form-data can be sent as URL variables (with method="get") or as HTTP post transaction (with method="post").

Answer 2

Notes on GET:

Appends form-data into the URL in name/value pairs
The length of a URL is limited (about 3000 characters)
Never use GET to send sensitive data! (will be visible in the URL)
Useful for form submissions where a user want to bookmark the result
GET is better for non-secure data, like query strings in Google

Notes on POST:
Appends form-data inside the body of the HTTP request (data is not shown is in URL)
Has no size limitations
Form submissions with POST cannot be bookmarked

Answer 3

basically by GET you can see something like that for example

http://www.domain.com/index.php?user=Garg
