My two cents,
I think if you are working on a personal product you use what works for you. If working in a group find out or decide as a group what standards to use. The hungarian standards are well designed, but I've seen others that work as well.
When posting data from a from to another script I've see F used... as in $f_username $f_userpass.
As well as many others.
The best advise I could give with my (VERY) limited experience, chose a constant method for yourself and stick to it. That way it will become second nature to you.

A philosophical question.... Are there any standards to naming variables?? I was told that one should include a letter or combination of letters to describe a variable i.e. $sfoo = 'string'; // string $bfoo = true; // bool $nfoo = 10; // interger etc.... Thanks -- Gerard Samuel
