Ummm, that has nothing to do with windows. It will work on any platform,
but may give a WARNING depending on your error_reporting() level. But
yes, it is a good idea to use isset(), regardless. Remember that
textboxes will always be set, even if nothing was typed in. Only buttons
and checkboxes can really come across "not set".
