I am building a practice app with the Laravel
framework I built a form in one of the views which is set to post to the same view itself but when I hit
I think this post: Form submits as GET Laravel 4 is related to your problem. I think the problem as I undersood it is caused by end a form url with a / . I found this when having problems to using post to a ./ url in my form. There is also a bug at github that seems like it is related https://github.com/laravel/framework/issues/1804.
I know this is an old question but I found this thread having the same problem so hopefully someone else is helped by my answer.
