From: phpfanat at yandex dot ru Operating system: n/a PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Inaccurate $_GET array description
Description: ------------ The manual entry about Predefined variables at http://ru.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.predefined.php says "$_GET - Variables provided to the script via HTTP GET." This is wrong. $_GET filled with data even when POST method used and actually it come from HTTP URI's QUERY STRING. This messed up too many people. I did a poll, and more than 50% answered that you can send POST and GET requests simultaneously, proving it with this manual entry. I'd suggest to change it to "Variables provided to the script via QUERY STRING" or sometning more correct. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31434&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31434&r=mysqlcfg
