Synopsis
Read/Write
Forms may be submitted via two possible HTTP methods:
get
and post
. These methods
determine whether the form element data is sent to the server
appended to the ACTION
attribute URL
(get
) or as a transaction message body
(post
). In practice, when the
ACTION
and METHOD
attributes
are not assigned in a FORM
element, the form
performs an unconditional reload of the same document, restoring form
controls to their default values. Note that the
method
property is read-only in Internet Explorer
3.
Example
document.entryForm.method = "post"
Value
Either of the following constant values as a string:
get
| post
.
Default
