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!
