Aside from the helpful information that has been posted, I think it's 
very important to realize that clients send requests, not servers. (Even 
in cases where you want to send a request from your PHP script, you play 
the role of an HTTP client.)

Stated differently, it doesn't matter where an HTML form is located, the 
client (browser) sends the request when the form is submitted.

Hope that helps.

Chris
