Hi, Well people better than me (how is that possible?!) have said that $_REQUEST has the potential to open your app up to security vulnerabilities, and that it should be avoided because of that. Here's a post from Stephan Esser about it on the PHP-Internals list: http://www.mail-archive.com/internals@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg32832.html Stephan heads up the Hardened-PHP project and when it comes to security, I don't know of anyone better. So, if he advises not to use _REQUEST, it's a good idea to follow that advice. -- Richard Heyes -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
