I have been wondering what protocol is used to return the info in a web

HTTP; is it FTP; is it...?
Usually HTTP (or HTTPS depending on the URL of the page and the target
attribute of the HTML form) - depending on specifications in the HTML,
either a GET or POST request is used (the recommendation is to use GET
when performing searches etc. that are repeatable and the resulting link
can be bookmarked or handed to others, while using POST in other cases).
I cannot see how you arrive at that analysis, Robert.

which cannot (as far as I can see) ever result in the
use of either HTTP or HTTPS. SMTP, yes; HTTP(S), no.
