yeah you can set a variable this way: http://www.example.com/test.php?var=something
This sets the variables $var equal to "something" and you can use them accordingly within your script. If you have safe mode on then you'll need to access the $var variable by using the $_GET array like so: $_GET['var'] Cheers!
