There are two types of POST operations: simple actions and complex actions.
In simple POST actions, the server processes the list of POST parameters and saves the new information (such as set domain name). In this case, the action value is not important and the server does not identify it.
In complex POST actions, the server should gather all the needed POST parameters and then trigger a specific action (such as add profile). In this case, the action is identified by the action value in the HTTP POST command.
