that's all true... but in a way the html "code" in your page causes the data to be appended to the url...

"The method attribute of a form dictates how the data is sent to the handling page. The two options -get and post- refer to the HTTP method to be used. In short, the get method sends the submitted data tot he receiving page as a serious of name-value pairs appended to the URL."
