Answer / nikhilkumar bagla
GET :-
-it is used to send information from a form with Get Methods.
-it will be displayed in the browser's address bar(its visible).
-it has limits on the amount of information to send (max. 100 characters).
-When using method="get" in HTML forms, all variable names and values are displayed in the URL.
POST:-
-Information sent from a form with the POST method is invisible to others.
-it has no limits on the amount of information to send.
-by default 8 Mb max size for the POST method, (can be changed by setting the post_max_size in the php.ini file).

Answer / yugandhar
GET:
-----
1. URL Changes to the submitted script name, appended with
a list
of each variable with the value.
2. Use only if the number of variable to be used in a form
ar very less.
3. Never use GET forms when asking for login ID and
passwords.
4. Even hidden variables are shown as a part of the URL.
5. A lot of webservers might complain about long URLs being
submitted.
A lot of times a URL 255 char or more is a problem.
POST:
-----
1. This is the best way of submitting forms to the web
server.
2. There is no limitation on the number of Variables passed
from the form.
3. This is a transparent way of transmitting variables to
the webserver
where hidden variable are always hidden!

Answer / ekta
Fundamental Difference is probably the Visibility - GET request is sent via the URL string (appended to the URI with a question-mark as separator), which is visible whereas POST request is encapsulated in the body of the HTTP request and can't be seen.

Answer / khaleek ahmad
get and post are HTTP methods that are used to send request
to the server.Difference of them are listed below.
Get() transfer only 256 char. While there is not limit for post.
As the data transfers through address bar (URL) there are
some restrictions in using space, some characters like
ampersand (&) etc in the GET method of posting data. We have
to take special care for encoding data if such special
characters are present. While in post there is no restriction.
