POST request not working in form - apache

Question

I'm trying to submit some form using POST method. Here is par of form:
<form action="interlopers.php" mehod="post" id = "interlopersForm" name="interlopersForm" onsubmit="return validateInterlopersForm()">
<table border="0">
<tr>
<td> <label for="ast_num" > Ast. num </label> </td>
<td> <input type="text" name="ast_num" id = "ast_num"
value="<?php if(isset($_REQUEST['ast_num'])) { echo htmlentities ($_REQUEST['ast_num']); } ?>"
size="6"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="cut_off"> Cut-off </label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="cut_off" id="cut_off" size="6" ></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="data"> Data </label></td>
<td><input type ="checkbox" name="data" id = "dataSDSS" value="SDSS" checked> SDSS <br>
<input type ="checkbox" name="data" id="dataWISE" value="WISE" checked > WISE <br>
<input type ="checkbox" name="data" id = "dataSp" value="Sp" checked> Taxonomy</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> <label for="isFinalStep"> Just interlopers? </label> </td>
<td> <input type = "checkbox" name="isFinalStep" id = "isFinalStep"> </td>
</tr>
<tr> <input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="1"> </tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center"> <input type="submit" value="Calculate" > </td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
But, instead of getting POST request im getting GET request. I'm using apache server and php5 on Ubuntu. I tried this on local-server and on remote host, but still GET instead of POST.

Change mehod="post" to method="post".
You wrote wrong.
