One way to set the   GET variable is to parse the URL using parse url   and then parse the  query string using parse str    which sets the variables into the   GET global   This approach is useful     if you want to test GET parameter handling without making actual queries  e g  for testing the incoming parameters for existence and input filtering and sanitizing of incoming vars  and when you don t want to construct the array manually each time  but use the normal URL     function setGetRequest  url         query   parse url  url  PHP URL QUERY       parse str  query    GET       url    http   www example com test php a 10 amp b plop    setGetRequest  url       var dump   GET     Result    GET contains  array      a    gt  string  10   length 2     b    gt  string  plop   length 4

GET contains the keys   values that are passed to your script in the URL   If you have the following URL    http   www example com test php a 10 amp b plop   Then   GET will contain    array    a    gt  string  10   length 2     b    gt  string  plop   length 4     Of course  as   GET is not read-only  you could also set some values from your PHP code  if needed      GET  my value      test     But this doesn t seem like good practice  as   GET is supposed to contain data from the URL requested by the client
