---manual entry---
HTTP GET variables: $_GET
Note: Introduced in 4.1.0. In earlier versions, use $HTTP_GET_VARS. 

An associative array of variables passed to the current script via the HTTP
GET method. Automatically global in any scope. 

This is a 'superglobal', or automatic global, variable. This simply means
that it is available in all scopes throughout a script. You don't need to do
a global $_GET; to access it within functions or methods, as you do with
$HTTP_GET_VARS. 

$HTTP_GET_VARS contains the same initial information, but is not an
autoglobal. (Note that HTTP_GET_VARS and $_GET are different variables and
that PHP handles them as such) 

If the register_globals directive is set, then these variables will also be
made available in the global scope of the script; i.e., separate from the
$_GET and $HTTP_GET_VARS arrays. For related information, see the security
chapter titled Using Register Globals. These individual globals are not
autoglobals.
