Using JSP in Form action

Question

I came across a ocwcd question as follows:

<form action="sendOrder.jsp"> 
  <input type="text" name="creditCard">
  <input type="text" name="expirationDate"> 
  <input type="submit"/> 
</form>

considering the above piece of code question is : when creating a web form with this HTML which HTTP method is used when sending this request from the browser?

Options were given as below:

A. GET
B. PUT
C. POST D. SEND
E. FORM

In my view ans will be C.POST.but answer is given as A.GET

Can anyone provide any explanation to this???or is it a typo error in solution sheet?

I think it is better to add "method" attribute into form tag to set http request method. — qichunren, Dec 05 '17 at 04:47
GET is the default form submission method. Take a look at https://stackoverflow.com/q/2314401/1039555. — Kartik, Dec 05 '17 at 04:50
