What do you mean? Look like what?

Do you want to know the difference? That's discussed countless times here.

Hi,

Get

Default action method is get when you clicking submit button

low amount of data can pass to server

data is visible in address bar

Post

Data is invisible

large amount of data can pass

better to use post request for secure, such as password passing or any important message passing

The HTTP 1.1 spec?

Check http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html

GET

1.Designed for getting information (e.g. document, chart, results of query)

2.Can include a query string

POST

1.Designed for posting information

2.Passes all its data (of unlimited length) to server as part of its http request body

3.Hides sensitive information from server log by including it in the message body instead of the URL query string
