PHP $_POST no work

Question

tried method get and $_GET it works perfect but when i try method post and $_POST or $_REQUEST nothing happens =\ any help ? thanks

PHP and FORM is in SAME PAGE

HTML :

<form method="post">
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="user">Meno:</label>
        <input type="text" id="user" name="user" class="form-control" placeholder="meno admina" required>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="psw">Heslo:</label>
        <input type="password" id="psw" name="password" class="form-control" placeholder="heslo admina" required>
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        <input type="submit" class="btn btn-success" name="submit" v>
    </div>
</form>

PHP :

<?php
if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
    $user = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($_POST['user']));   
    echo $user;
}
?>

Tried also just echo $_POST['user']; but nothing.

@PatrikHorváth check for errors then. For help check my answer — Alive to die - Anant, Jun 22 '17 at 07:56
In your last input tag for the submit button you have `v>` in the end. I hope its a typing mistake. — Prerak Sola, Jun 22 '17 at 08:01
I have tested your code but didn't get any error. Everything is ok — Nazmul Hasan, Jun 22 '17 at 08:02
@PatrikHorváth I just did some research. Don't know if it helps, but I'll list everything I saw: First of all, write `mothod="POST"` (post all in capitalized letters) - Also, do you have a .htaccess file that in some form interacts with a post method? — Twinfriends, Jun 22 '17 at 08:05
@PatrikHorváth What was it? The `POST` in capitalized letters? — Twinfriends, Jun 22 '17 at 08:08
@PatrikHorváth Great! :) I edited my answer in the case someone finds this question trough google. Btw here the source I found this information: https://stackoverflow.com/a/30131766/5740849 — Twinfriends, Jun 22 '17 at 08:12

Edit:

For all who have the same problem, its all about this line:

<form method="post"> - post have to be written in uppercase, like:

<form method="POST"> - This solved the problem.

what if this guy made this code in the same page? it's not necessary to give action to page. – Ashish Patel Jun 22 '17 at 07:52
@AshishPatel agree with you – Alive to die - Anant Jun 22 '17 at 07:53
@Twinfriends CODE is in same page is after – Patrik Horváth Jun 22 '17 at 07:53
While this is true, I don't think its on the same page, since it would work perfectly if it was. (Tested) – Twinfriends Jun 22 '17 at 07:55
@PatrikHorváth Well your code works perfectly on my server. – Twinfriends Jun 22 '17 at 07:56
@Twinfriends in my server i use PHP 7.1 ( live server ) no works, Local server ( PHP 7.0 ) no works =\ – Patrik Horváth Jun 22 '17 at 07:57
@PatrikHorváth Thats quite weird... I just tested it on a server with 7.1 and on a older VM with PHP 5.3 ... both work.. – Twinfriends Jun 22 '17 at 07:59

@PatrikHorváth check for errors.I have added error checking code in my answer.Just try that – Alive to die - Anant Jun 22 '17 at 08:00
But I have tested using post. It did not throw any error. – Nazmul Hasan Jun 22 '17 at 08:17
@NazmulHasan For me it worked with lowercase letters too. Think it has something to do with the config. – Twinfriends Jun 22 '17 at 08:19
