Then learn it!

The things you need to understand:

- HTTP
- URL
- query parameters
- CGI

You just send a request with your browser and the server will process
it. This request can be:

- URL with or without any query parameter (<a href="...">...</a>).
- A form which gets submitted (<form action="..." ...></form>)
- An XHR request using JavaScript

Go and get a book about how HTTP, CGI etc. works. To explain this *here*
is WAY OFF TOPIC!
