When the post method is used to submit a form the name portion of the name or value pair becomes the value assigned to the array element?

When the POST method is used to submit a form, the name portion of each name-value pair acts as the key for the corresponding value in the resulting array. This means that the server receives the form data as an associative array where each key is derived from the "name" attributes of the form fields, and the values are what the user has entered or selected. This structure allows for easy access and manipulation of the submitted data on the server side.
