What is the difference between method="POST" and type="POST" in PHP forms?

The difference between method="POST" and type="POST" in PHP forms is that method="POST" is used to specify the HTTP method to be used when submitting the form data, while type="POST" is not a valid attribute for form elements in HTML. To correctly submit form data using the POST method in PHP, you should use method="POST" within the <form> tag. 

&lt;form action=&quot;process_form.php&quot; method=&quot;POST&quot;&gt;
  &lt;!-- form fields go here --&gt;
  &lt;input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Submit&quot;&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;
