One of my most favourite features of php is that I don't have to know that $x is actually in the $_GET array, or post array or cookie array or session array or environment array. It's not just that it seems like Perl geekery. I quite specifically do not want my code to be specific to a particular request/calling method. To my eyes, it is much more powerful if it can be used from a form, or a link, or the command line, possibly with overrides from cookies or sessions, without changing a line of code! So, why do you want to know where $x came from? George
