For the record:

You can control the order of precedence of variable reading
through a php.ini setting, variable_order, (replaces gpc_order).

I believe the default is EGPCS i.e. environment, get, post, cookie, session.

The last in the list takes precedence, i.e. session variables normally have
precedence
over get/post variables
