Yes, because include() basically just inserts the code from
pagecalled.php at the position of the include call. Therefore the
$argument1 and $argument2 variables are available to the code in
pagecalled.php if you set them like this.

No, it's not the same. You're talking about the HTTP GET method to send
data to a script from a html form, for instance data a user submitted
using a html form.

In your case you just want to be able to use php variables in a php
script you include from another php script.
