Somewhat, but its what you need to do for the post and get arrays to work. What you need to do is make sure check the values in the global variables before you use them. For example if on one page you have a form for a user signup and <input type=text name='userName'> on the next page $_POST['userName'] should be checked for things like quotes and other characters that will alter your SQL statement before you actually INSERT that value into your table.
