I have a little question at the end of the video

At the end of the video, the method already changed to the 'Post'. But the filter_input() is still INPUT_GET not INPUT_POST. So i just wonder, you can change the method to the post, but you can still use INPUT_GET to filter the value?

Thank you so much! I hope someone can help me out

Hi Miha. The short answer is yes; you can use the POST method and use INPUT_GET at the same time.

In this particular example, since the values we are filtering are from the URL, we use the INPUT_GET type because that is where the information is coming from.

Remember, we can pass a URL parameter along with a posted form.

I hope this helps.
