  AFAIK, all forms that submits data has that attribute. It just specifies the location where the user data is to be sent for further processing. I took that snippet from CE itself.
  
  A simple example would be,
  
  

  This is send the data of login form to login.php.
  
  Is this what you're asking?

  Took that from CE, actually from this same page itself. 😁
  
  Its certainly the url to some module specific to the CMS of this forum. Not a feature of html. Sorry, never thought it would create confusion like that. I now see where you're coming from.

  when browser send request to the server, how server come to know that requst is get or post?

  GET or POST is defined as part of HTTP request header. You should read about TCP/IP programming if you need more details.
