       Note

	      This is a 'superglobal', or automatic global, variable. This simply means that it is available in all scopes  throughout	a  script.
	      There is no need to do global $variable; to access it within functions or methods.

       Note

	       When running on the command line , this will not include the argv and argc entries; these are present in the $_SERVER array.

       Note

	       The  variables  in $_REQUEST are provided to the script via the GET, POST, and COOKIE input mechanisms and therefore could be modi-
	      fied by the remote user and cannot be trusted. The presence and order of variables listed in this array is defined according to  the
	      PHP variables_order configuration directive.
