      doGet()  > This Method used to get data from the database.

      doPost() > This Method used to post data via web forms to database.

        we will post data via doPost() it will clearly shown the posted data in the URL line.It is not secure.

        But, using doGet() the posted data will hide.so that we use doGet() for

posting data also.

Thanks

The main difference doGET() and doPOST() is that:

doGET() is having limited length,i.e 1024 charaters,where as doPOST() can accept unlimited characters.

doget() method shows the details where as dopost method doesnt shows in information

and doget method is limited by characters(1024)...

is it possible to see data in case of doPost().

I think in case of doGet(),data is shown in URL.

but in case of doPost() it is secure, it makes a new socket connection to send data.

will u clearify  it.

As we know that the doGet() function has limited character string to send to the server and this character string query is added with the Url. while doPost() send the query string with the request body so this is secure data and doPost() carry out the data in the bulk.

DoGet	DoPost
In doGet Method the parameters are appended to the URL and sent along with header information	In doPost, parameters are sent in separate line in the body
Maximum size of data that can be sent using doget is 240 bytes	There is no maximum size for data
Parameters are not encrypted	Parameters are encrypted
DoGet method generally is used to query or to get some information from the server	Dopost is generally used to update or post some information to the server
DoGet is faster if we set the response content length since the same connection is used. Thus increasing the performance	DoPost is slower compared to doGet since doPost does not write the content length
DoGet should be idempotent. i.e. doget should be able to be repeated safely many times	This method does not need to be idempotent. Operations requested through POST can have side effects for which the user can be held accountable, for example, updating stored data or buying items online.
DoGet should be safe without any side effects for which user is held responsible	This method does not need to be either safe

Absolutly Wrong. doGet() doesn't hide data. Using doGet() data will be shown in URL, but using doPost() data will be hidden and will go as header to the server.

sorry for doGet it will apper as a string URL in the browser window.

where as in do Post it will be hidden in the request header.

By using doGet we can't send more than 2kb data,where by using doPost we can do.

Yes, the in doget() method the request appear as a part of URL. The maximum siZe of data for doget() method is 2k.In case of dopst() method ,data doesn't appear as a part of URL.Also there is no limit on max. size of data.

doGet() method is not secure. It shows the request attributes as in url re-writiing. Whereas doPost() send this data as a part of header so it is much secured.

doGet() -> limited data can send ( max 2kb)

               parameters will be seen in the address bar

               its faster that doPost()

doPost() -> no limitations for sending data

                 parameters will not seen in the address bar

                 but it is slower than doGet()

The major difference between the doGet() and doPost() methods is that in doGet() method wats the paramaters is passing can be seen in url but in doPost() method we cant see the parameters in url thats the difference upto my knowledge

when you use doget() method the formfield data is passed to the server as part of query string so there is no confidential to the data ,every body can see that data

and one more is we can send very limited data to the server by using doget() method.

if you want to send the large amount of data and if your data want to be secure we have to go for doPost().
