Hmm...point number 1 would be time management, for you! Maybe you should've
started researching this more than a day before hand.

As far as POST vs. GET, there's hardly a difference. POST data is sent in
the headers, GET data is sent in the URL. Either one can easily be created
by the user, so all data has to be validated no matter what method you use.

Subject: [PHP] Advantages of php


 Hi all,

  I'am a php programer, I have got an seminar on 31st of May(hardly
 one day left) on PHP, I have to expose its advantages and advantage of
 PHP's security when compared to other languages. I would be thankful if
 you people could send me some useful information regarding its security
 and other important features.

 What is the main difference between Form Post and Get method.?


 Note : I need atlest 10 points on PHP's security.


 Thanks in Adv

I know it's being picky but if the OP is going to be presenting to an
audience it would be better if what he says is correct.

POST data is not sent in the headers of an HTTP request. It is sent in the
data part of the request which is empty for non-POST requests.

Outstanding ability to handle sessions.
Built-in encryption functions such as crypt() and a whole host of mcrypt()
functions.

That's 2 on PHP security advantages.

HTH!

Maybe he's still mulling over the Hello World solution

3. htmlspecialchars() is a very nice function as welland you can't beat 
the regular expression functions for validating data
