Setting variables in PHP / accessing POST and GET in PHP?

[golly_gina]

1. How does one set variables in PHP?
2. How does one access POST and GET variables in PHP?

 

[DzSoundNirvana]

$variable = "me"; //This is a string value
$variable = 1; //This is a Boolean value

$_GET && $_POST are called GLOBALS
so you can access them by

$_GET['key_name'];

IE:

echo $_GET['key_name'];

all things GLOBAL are with in an array/is an array so you can

print_r($_GET);
print_r($_POST);

or

foreach($_GET as $key => $value){
echo $key . ":" . $value . "<br>";
}
