PHP Global Variables - Superglobals
Superglobals were introduced in PHP 4.1.0, and are built-in variables that are always available in all scopes.
PHP Global Variables - Superglobals
Some predefined variables in PHP are "superglobals", which means that they are always accessible, regardless of scope - and you can access them from any function, class or file without having to do anything special.
The PHP superglobal variables are:
- $GLOBALS
- $_SERVER
- $_REQUEST
- $_POST
- $_GET
- $_FILES
- $_ENV
- $_COOKIE
- $_SESSION
The next chapters will explain some of superglobals, and the rest will be explained in later chapters.
