If you are going to be accepting data, and you don't care or are not sure if it's going to be a GET or a POST, then use $_REQUEST, which contains both $_GET and $_POST data.

hi..

quick question.. a basic link <a ref ="foo.php?a=1">blah</a> allows you to process the vars in foo.php using $_GET, easy/basic enough. however, if i have a form from cat.php that does a 'post' of the form information/ input to the foo.php, i'm then going to have to either change the form to do a 'get' or else i'm going to have to do both a $_GET, and a $_POST within foo.php to
access the vars from the pages that are interfacing with foo.php.

is there an easier/cleaner/better approach??

or do i really need/wind up doing something like

if ($_GET['foo'])...

if ($_POST['apple'])...

and just have a mix of both methods within the code...

thanks
