This is wrong. $_GET filled with data even when POST method used and actually it come from HTTP URI's QUERY STRING. This messed up too many people. I did a poll, and more than 50% answered that you can send POST and GET requests simultaneously, proving it with this manual entry. I'd suggest to change it to "Variables provided to the script via QUERY STRING" or sometning more correct. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31434&edit=1
