Lets work again! Forum question

[bluewalrus]

OO so the get takes from the question mark to the equals mark, like this? I know I could run this but I just want to see if this is the correct usage or if I'm missing a part. Thanks.

$set_variable = $_GET['variablecontrol'];
echo $set_variable;
// displays "variable_set_to"

Correct, and when making a forum, you can also set the method to "get" instead of just "post".
