Form submit invisible variables from page to page...?

I have noticed that when visiting certain websites, when I submit a form often the variables created are not shown in the address bar. Usually they are eg: (.php?Name=Andy&etc...)

Try and use the FIND form, to see what I mean if you dont understand.

Can anyone tell me how 'hidding' the variables is possible when submitting forms... this would be very useful for my current project. Thanx.
 
<form action=&quot;nextpage.php&quot; action=&quot;post&quot;>
this makes the browser &quot;post the information with the HTTP request.

<form action=&quot;nextpage.php&quot; action=&quot;get&quot;>
this makes the browser send the information via the address bar.
