$_REQUEST

(No version information available, might be only in CVS)

$_REQUEST — HTTP Request variables

Descrizione

An associative array that by default contains the contents of $_GET, $_POST e $_COOKIE.

Log delle modifiche

Versione Descrizione
5.3.0 Introduced request_order. This directive affects the contents of $_REQUEST.
4.3.0 $_FILES information was removed from $_REQUEST.
4.1.0 Introduced $_REQUEST.

Note

Nota: This is a 'superglobal', or automatic global, variable. This simply means that it is available in all scopes throughout a script. There is no need to do global $variable; to access it within functions or methods.

Nota: When running on the command line , this will not include the argv and argc entries; these are present in the $_SERVER array.

Nota: Variables provided to the script via the GET, POST, and COOKIE input mechanisms, and which therefore cannot be trusted. The presence and order of variable inclusion in this array is defined according to the PHP variables_order configuration directive.

Don't forget, because $_REQUEST is a different variable than $_GET and $_POST, it is treated as such in PHP -- modifying $_GET or $_POST elements at runtime will not affect the ellements in $_REQUEST, nor vice versa.

e.g:

<?php

$_GET
['foo'] = 'a';
$_POST['bar'] = 'b';
var_dump($_GET); // Element 'foo' is string(1) "a"
var_dump($_POST); // Element 'bar' is string(1) "b"
var_dump($_REQUEST); // Does not contain elements 'foo' or 'bar'

?>

If you want to evaluate $_GET and $_POST variables by a single token without including $_COOKIE in the mix, use  $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] to identify the method used and set up a switch block accordingly, e.g:

<?php

switch($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'])
{
case
'GET': $the_request = &$_GET; break;
case
'POST': $the_request = &$_POST; break;
.
.
// Etc.
.
default:
}
?>

That would depend on your server configuration.
