If this the case on $_POST and $_REQUEST mambo jambo, what happened to
the practical programming practices on reusing code? Here is my explanation.
Let say your existing projects in php are 100 and each project has 1000
code of lines. To be more realistic, let say you only have to modified
25% in one project, just to add this "$_POST and $_REQUEST" on every
line containing the word $variable. IMAGINE HOW MUCH TIME AND EFFORT A
PERSON WOULD SPEND EDITING EVERY SINGLE PROJECT. IMAGINE IF THERE ARE A
COUPLE OF THOUSANDS PHP FILE TO EDIT.
IS JUST BECAUSE PHP HAS A NEED TO PUT SHARPER FANGS, BIGGER CLAWS AND
MORE SPEED, IS NOT NECESSARILY EVERYBODY HAVE TO SUFFER.
Im wondering now if this is the same story in perl?
If not then im switching to perl.
I need some real answers. Thanks for any feedback.
