No idea - I've just always done it :-)

Yep - a quick check says you're right, they are already urlDecoded

In fact, the release notes say:
$_GET
Available when running in CGI mode.
It is an array variable, translated from the QUERY_STRING. It assumes the query string is encoded as url-form-encoded data. The data will be converted to the native character set from the character set defined in the outputTextEncoding.
(and it's the same for $_POST, etc.)

Thanks - I can go remove a whole bunch of urlDecode calls now :-)

Alex, just a question for future reference. Is it necessary to URLDecode the 
$_GET values? I'm going on php experience here where $_GET values are already 
decoded. I was assuming it would be the same with Livecode.

Cheers
