3,134 Pointswill the method used to process the form change how I write HTML form code? :(
Will I need to know the exact method or is it safer to leave everything to back-end engineer?

It might be the case that the file you're working in is a template that the backend will use to generate the proper value(s), in which case you won't have to worry about this value at all, but if you have to write it manually, the proper value here will probably be post
in most cases, but it might be get
. However, no matter the value that's necessary, there will be no difference in how you write your code. The only syntactical difference between an HTML form sent via post
and one sent via get
is that keyword. Everything else will be exactly the same
