how to execute php file from android class using the Post method

I want to execute the php url from android and pass the two values while executing the url.

Here is the code I use. I used GET method but I need to send it as POST variable.

How can I change the request from GET variable to POST variable in the below code: 

public class AsyncTaskOperation extends AsyncTask <String, Void, Void>
{

    @Override
    protected Void doInBackground(String... paramsObj)
    {

        //Sending the php file path 
        String php_send="http://localhost/tested/test/copy_fiel.php?Cus="+Cus+"&"+"Cut_fol="+Cut_fol;

        System.out.println(php_send);
        // want to execute the above path using Http client but it is not working 
        HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(php_send);

        try {   
            HttpResponse resp = client.execute(httpGet);
            System.out.println(resp);        
        }         
        catch(Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        return null;
    }
}

I use Asynchttp client. I find it easier to set it post or get

To post data: - Create a parameters object, - put in your values and post to the url.

Code sample is as follows:

AsyncHttpClient client = new AsyncHttpClient();
RequestParams params=new RequestParams();
params.put("msg","Hello world");
url="[Your URL]";
client.post(url,params, new AsyncHttpResponseHandler() {
                    @Override
                    public void onStart() {
                        super.onStart();                                                
                    }
                   @Override
                    public void onSuccess(String response) {
                    }
                    @Override
                    public void onFailure(Throwable e, String response) {
                    }
  );

Use NameValuePair with HttpPost, it will work:

   HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();

    HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://www.yoursite.com/myexample.php");

try {

    List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
    nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Cus", Cus));
    nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Cut_fol", Cut_fol));
    httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));


    HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);

} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
} catch (IOException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
}
