Static pages are fine if you don’t want to interact with them. Books have been around since the 1400s.
But they won’t let you search a whole book for particular name, place, term. Or take your input and calculate answers for you? Or let you create music or art? etc. etc.
You don’t need that to search. In fact, you send the search query and get the response back.
Yes, they let you search the term, it’s called asking the librarian to tell you which page.
Forms that send a post request to the server and the server serves you the page with the answer is how it works. Ajax is cool, sure, but don’t tell us lies, or don’t talk with confidence without knowing.

Y’all forget about forms? And, uh, programs?
I remember doing indexes in html with hyperlinks
