PHP $_REQUEST
This variable contains the content of both $_GET, $_COOKIE, and $_POST.

This can get the values passed from the form with both the GET and POST methods.

Here are 2 examples:

<form action=”myphp.php” method=”POST”>
Firstname: <input type=”text” name=”firstname” />
Lastname: <input type=”text” name=”lastname” />
<input type=”submit” />
</form>

<?php
echo “Firstname: “ $_REQUEST[“firstname”]; . <br />;
echo “Lastname: “ $_REQUEST[“lastname”];
?>

OR

<form action=”myphp.php” method=”GET”>
Firstname: <input type=”text” name=”firstname” />
Lastname: <input type=”text” name=”lastname” />
<input type=”submit” />
</form>

<?php
echo “Firstname: “ . $_REQUEST[“firstname”] . “<br />”;
echo “Lastname: “ . $_REQUEST[“lastname”] ;
?>
