Basically I use the MVC (Model View Controller) architecture when building my php scripts. So all of my logic is handled by a controller which calls methods on functions, that way the php scritps that are used to display forms, tables etc. have little to no business logic to them at all. Now in the controller I woul find it pretty annoying if I had to reference either the $HTTP_POST_VARS or $HTTP_GET_VARS aarry, so to add to the fact that it would make the code look more messy than it needs to be. So all I wanted to know was is it possible to use 'global $GLOBAL' within a function?
