$_GET

keyword

$_GET is an array variable, translated from the QUERY_STRING. It assumes the query string is encoded as url-form-encoded data.

$_GET

Use the $_GET keyword to access the array generated from the QUERY_STRING component of a URL. http://www.website.com?variable1=value1&variable2=value2

$_GET is only available when running in CGI mode (Server).

note

The data is converted to the native character set from the character set defined in the outputTextEncoding.

put $_GET into tGetArray

#For example: URL "http://www.amazon.com?cat=books&ISBN=0-943396-04-2"
put $_GET["cat"] into tCategory
put $_GET["ISBN"] into tISBN

if $_GET["cat"] is "books" then
  ... do something ...
end if
