    <form> is for forms, not for fetching. If you wanna show some webpages inside your webpage, use <iframe> If however you wanna fetch strings of another website. Then you’ll have to learn something called Web Scrapping, or Web Crawler.

    1, post, you just can set you from action to https://test.com/B.html, when submit the form data will post to test.com and page will redirect to as well

    2, Fetching html string, by default user can’t read the data from other domain. if test.com no own by you, you need hack the test.com web server, add the HTTP header named: Access-Control-Allow-Origin

    see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS

    BTW: if you just want get the text for you self, you just can use tool for post the data by HTTP protocol, then read the response, for example:

    POST /B.html HTTP/1.1
Host: test.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
