Why does the anchor tag not get passed to the server in PHP?

The anchor tag does not get passed to the server in PHP because it is a client-side element used for navigation within a webpage. To pass data to the server using an anchor tag, you can use query parameters in the URL. This way, when the anchor tag is clicked, the data will be included in the URL and can be accessed by the server. 

<a href="example.php?data=value">Click me</a>
```

In the PHP code, you can access the data passed through the anchor tag using the $_GET superglobal array.

```php
$data = $_GET['data'];
echo $data;
