unset $_REQUEST global

[jdneill]

I want to use the following in one of my scripts:

 

        unset( $GLOBALS['_REQUEST'] );
        $GLOBALS['_REQUEST'] = array_merge( $GLOBALS['_GET'], $GLOBALS['_POST'] );

 

I want to use $_REQUEST but do not want cookie information etc to be present in the $_REQUEST global and I wondered.........

 

Is this considered safe and could there be and security implications doing this?

 

Many thanks,

 

John

I do not see any security implications on doing this...as long as $GLOBALS work, it should be fine.

Thanks, just wanted a second opinion on this.
