Use $HTTP_POST_VARS['var'] instead of $var and you will know it comes from post. Or $HTTP_GET_VARS['var'] if you want it from GET (the URL).
Or use the superglobals like someone else mentioned if you have the latest PHP version. ---John Holmes... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Pemberton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "php list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 2:45 PM Subject: [PHP] Finding out how a variable was registered Is there a function call to figure out how a variable was registered? I am writing a page that handles a form and I need to know whether or not a variable was created using the GET or POST method (I don't want the user to be able to to 'foo.php?var=value' and mess with the results) - - Joe [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
