php includes and $_GET and $_POST variables.

[lambada]

Right this is a long question so here goes....

index.php?page=blog&post=12&comment=yes

This is a sample URL for something I want to do.

index.php only uses the page variable to include the page - in this case blog.php,
blog.php needs access to those get variables post and comment aswell as post variables.
My question is this. If I called the above page how would blog.php get the extra URL gets? Would I use the standard $_GET[post] or would I need to use a duifferent method?

Thanks

Yes, if you have $_GET in blog.php that gets the variable from URL, it will work properly when you include it in another file.

Wonderful! Thanks for that, now to weed some errors out of my code....

$_GET, $_POST, $_REQUEST, $_SESSION, $_SERVER, etc are all global variables, avaliable in all scripts, functions, objects, etc, even if included.
