How to check if   GET is empty

if     GET  echo  empty     why do you need such a checking    lol you guys too direct-minded  don t take as offense but sometimes not-minded at all   GET is very special variable  not like others  it is supposed to be always set  no need to treat it as other variables   when   GET is not set and it s expected - it is emergency case and that s what  Undefined variable  notice invented for

I would use the following if statement because it is easier to read  and modify in the future     if  isset   GET      is array   GET     count   GET   0          empty  let s make sure it s an empty array for further reference      GET array          or unset it        or set it to null       etc

You said it yourself  check that it s empty   if  empty   GET            no data passed by get     See  PHP is so straightforward  You may simply write  what you think     This method is quite secure     GET could give you an undefined variable E NOTICE if   GET was unset  not probable  but possible
