[FX.php List] $_REQUEST

[Jonathan Schwartz]

I assumed that everyone has this challenge. Folks arrive to a given 
page from either a link using a GET or a from using a POST. Let's say 
that we need to edit the page and the recid is the field in question. 
Either the GET or the POST has to contain a recid or it's a no go....

if(isset($_GET['recid']) or isset($_POST[recid])
{
Good
}else{
Bad
}

or, the other way...

if(!isset($_GET['recid']) and !isset($_POST[recid])
{
Bad
}else{
Good
}

Of course, just testing for empty isn't good enough, so this code 
starts to expand. ;-)

Just thought that the $_REQUEST was a simpler approach that I had overlooked.
