 It's not a php specific thing.  It's a web thing. Everything after the ?
 are parameters to be passed to the process, for example (a very bad
 example!!):
 
 www.http://www.domain.com/login.php?username=dumb&password=letmein
 
 This passes username "dumb" and password "letmein" to login.php.  How
 login.php uses them is up to the script (using $_GET[] to retrieve the
 parameters).
