Really basic question

Hi, I'm not a PHP developer but I need the answer to a simple question. I have inherited a web site written in PHP with a bespoke content management system in mySQL. On the home page, the main form posts to 'xxx.co.uk/yyy'. There is no page called 'yyy.php' and no folder called 'yyy'. But there is a page called '_yy.php'.

My question is how does this work? When I code in .net or whatever, forms post to an actual page using the actual page name.

Sorry for asking what is probably a very simple question.

thanks

Search and replace the FORM action to post to the existing script and see if that fixes the problem. It's probalby a bug or something over looked?
