Correction: $_GET - any parameters passed in the GET string. $_POST - any parameters passed in the body of a POST query. $_COOKIE - Any values sent by the browser as a cookie. $_REQUEST - The *three* above merged. I'm not sure whether $_REQUEST is affected by the variables_order configuration setting, but this could potentially affect both presence and precedence of the GPC variables in $_REQUEST. Cheers!
