The form variables are in $_POST for post variables, $_GET for get variables
and $_COOKIE for cookie variables. Case is significant here -- these
variable names are all caps!!
They are associative arrays whose key is the name of the variable you want
to reference. So, to reference the form variable $v sent via post method
you'd use something like: $_POST["v"]

If you're using the latest version of php, form variables are in an
array rather than simple global variables. I believe their is a setting
in php.ini to switch to the older behavior.
