Just a correction.... you can use arrays with querystrings
page.php?var1[]=first&var1[]=second&var1[]=third
$var1
Array
(
[0] => first
[1] => second
[2] => third
)
OR
page.php?var1[]=first&var2[2]=second&var2[]=third
$var 1
Array
(
[0] => first
)
$var2
Array
(
[2] => second
[3] => third
)
You can also have multidimensional arrays, but not associative arrays.
But you do have the 255 character limitation (can be a bummer).
