PHP – $_GET

PHP $_GET

$_GET contains an array of variables received via the HTTP GET method.

There are two main ways to send variables via the HTTP GET method:

  • Query strings in the URL
  • HTML Forms

Query string in the URL

A query string is data added at the end of a URL. In the link below, everything after the ? sign is part of the query string:

<a href="demo_phpfile.php?subject=PHP&web=W3schools.com">Test $GET</a>

The query string above contains two key/value pairs:

subject=PHP
web=W3schools.com

In the PHP file we can use the $_GET variable to collect the value of the query string. Continue reading PHP – $_GET
