Here you get some details on the differences of the post/get methods:
get: Append the arguments to the action URL and open it as if it were an
anchor.
post: Send the data through an HTTP post transaction.
When using the post method, there is no theoretical limit to the amount of
data that can be sent to the HTTP server. The amount of data may be
constrained by the physical limits of the client computer.
When using the get method to send data to an HTTP server, the amount of data
that can be sent is limited by the maximum length of a URL. In this case the
URL cannot be longer than 2048 bytes.

Here you get more on how to handle them with PHP:
