Hi Ron,
One thing you should know is that when you use $_GET, you'll be sending a
little information about the particular page to the browser and therefore it
would be displayed in the address bar so for example if you're using get on a
login page, you'll be showing user id and passwrod in the address bar. $_POST
does the exact opposite of $_GET in that aspect and it's ideal. $_REQUEST does
both.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.
