You’re right, actually. multipart and url-encoded are usually produced by forms, and other types of request bodies (JSON, plaintext) don’t end up in $_POST. So $_QUERY and $_FORM, then. That sounds about right. I suppose $_QUERY is *technically* incorrect for similar reasons, in that if you have a plain parameter-less query string (e.g. http://example.com/foobar.php?query%20string) it won’t end up in $_GET… but I don’t think that’s widely used, and there are only two formats that come after the question mark. If you really need the raw string, it’s in $_SERVER anyway. So that’s not really a problem. -- Andrea Faulds http://ajf.me/
