This is the exact code in the HTML file:
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Form Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="action.php" mehtod="POST">
Your name: <input type="text" name="name" />
Your age: <input type="text" name="age" />
<input type="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
I believe that is using the method POST. If there is something wrong in the
HTML file, or if you have any other suggestions, then please let me know.
