To retrieve data from a POST request in PHP, you can use the $_POST global array. Here is a simple example:

<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    
    echo "Name: " . $name . "<br>";
    echo "Email: " . $email;
}
?>

In the code above, the form data submitted is first retrieved using the $_POST array. The retrieved data is then outputted on the page. Please note that this code must be placed on the page handling the POST request.
