GET and POST methods
Does anyone know exactly when to use the GET and when to use the POST methods, why and why not?


Thanks in advance.

The GET method puts the information in the address bar e.g. something like this: http://www.mysite.com/page.php?variable=myvariable

This is best used for passing data between pages that isn't private.

The POST method sends the data behind the scenes, which protects the data. Best used for Passwords & emails, etc.
