1044: Mainline

In Segment 1043, the <form> tag exhibits two parts. The first combination, method=get, specifies that the communication between the browser and the servlet is to follow the get protocol, rather than the post protocol, as explained in Segment 1062.

The second combination specifies the name of a servlet to be run, processcritic, located by way of the URL, http://whitney.ai.mit.edu/servlet/processcritic. This URL may target a computer different from the one on which the form is located.
