or alternatively just do something similar to what you did, using either the
in-built array handling, or your own string manipulation
ie.
http://url.com/page.php?var1=foo
http://url.com/page.php?var1=bar
could be either;
http://url.com/page.php?var[]=foo&var[]=bar
($_GET["var"] will be an array with "foo" and "bar" as elements 0 and 1)
OR
http://url.com/page.php?var=foo,bar
then
$var = explode(",", $_GET["var"]);
now, as above, $var is an array with the 2 terms

// can I use an OR operator in a variable that is passed through a url?
//
// ex. how can I combine the following two lines so that I end
// up with records
// that have an id of either 1 or 2?
//
// http://www.xyz.com/foo.php?FooID=1
//
// http://www.xyz.com/foo.php?FooID=2
//
// (I tried the following, but it didn't work:
// http://www.xyz.com/foo.php?FooID=1||FooID=2 )
//
// thanks in advance for your help.
