Arduino Web Server: Receiving response from web form
Your form method is set to GET. In this case, when Submit is clicked, the client/browser sends request with values in URI:

GET /index.html?data=user_value&amp;default_name_of_button=Submit HTTP/1.1
...more lines to follow...


These HTTP header lines will be available on your EthernetClient instance, retrieve them line-by-line using connected(), available(), read() methods. Then parse the line, find the user_value.

Please note that browser retrieves your page (to display it) using GET method too, in that case URI will be like:

GET /index.html HTTP/1.1
...more lines to follow...


It is recommended to use POST method to submit form values. Example content section (before content, server must send HTTP header - check Arduino Web Server example)

&lt;form method="POST" action="foo.php"&gt;

First Name: &lt;input type="text" name="first_name" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Last Name: &lt;input type="text" name="last_name" /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;input type="submit" name="action" value="Submit" /&gt;

&lt;/form&gt;


In this case the values are returned in content section:

POST /foo.php HTTP/1.1
