note 60506 added to faq.html

The value of an embedded variable can be set from URLs as shown in this example: http://www.someplace.com?x=3000 It is also possible to hide the value of x in the URL (for example by means of the POST method). This latter method may offer more security but it is accompanied by a significant disadvantage. Explain where this disadvantage lies? ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.html.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+60506 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60506&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60506&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60506&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60506&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60506&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60506&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+60506&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+60506&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
