Now, There are total three super global variables to catch this data in PHP. $_POST : It can catch the data which is sent using POST method. $_GET : It can catch the data which is sent using GET method. $_REQUEST : It can catch the data which is sent using both POST & GET methods.
PHP $_POST is a PHP super global variable which is used to collect form data after submitting an HTML form with method="post".
PHP $_REQUEST is a PHP super global variable which is used to collect data after submitting an HTML form. The example below shows a form with an input field and a submit button. When a user submits the data by clicking on "Submit", the form data is sent to the file specified in the action attribute of the <form> tag.
By using
$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') { // The request is using the POST method } For more details please see the documentation for the $_SERVER variable.
