HTTP_Post Form?

[2RIP]

I'm trying to make a login section for my homepage. It says
Your login must be sent by HTTP_POST and have the following structure:
And the Login Code:
<form action="first_protected_page_after_login.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="login">
<input type="text" name="userName">
<input type="password" name="userPass">
<input type="submit">
</form>

Logout code:

<form action="some_existing_protected_page.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="logout">

What is HTTP_Post and how am i suppose to combine these codes together to make a login block on my webpage? Also I i want to resize the width of the text area, where should i add width="185" ??

The method="POST" is the HTTP_POST and therefor you don't have to add anything. Anyway, you have to make a login page that checks if the username and password exists and if they are correct. But thats another story.

<input type="text" name="userName" size="145" />

Thats what you can use. Good Luck.
