if the IF statement evaluates to true then $r _has_ been set!!!

that leaves him completely open to SQL injection.
but your right in that writing this:
$r = "{$_GET['r']}";
.... is just plain wasteful, pointless and looks ugly.
and given the fact that $r is already set (see above) there is
no need to set it again at all.
I think you almost there Jackson, keep hacking :-)

Jackson got that bit from me - I don't think he is fully aware of what that
expression is doing!
the 'sum' of those conditions determines that either $r is 'good' or 'bad'
(whether $r is garbage or not set didn't seem like a difference worth bothering
with)

this is a good idea to better understand what is going on!
