note 85742 added to function.isset

I know this is probably not the recommended way to do this, but it seems to work fine for me. Instead of the normal isset check to extract variables from arrays (like $_REQUEST), you can use the @ prefix to squelch any errors. For example, instead of: <?php $test = isset($_REQUEST['test']) ? $_REQUEST['test'] : null; ?> you can use: <?php $test = @$_REQUEST['test']; ?> It saves some typing, but doesn't give the opportunity to provide a default value. If 'test' is not an assigned key for $_REQUEST, the assigned value will be null. ---- Server IP: 209.41.74.194 Probable Submitter: 98.216.180.152 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85742 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85742/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85742/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85742/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85742/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85742/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85742/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85742 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85742 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
