[irev] passing a parameter

[Alex Tweedly]

No idea - I've just always done it :-)

Yep - a quick check says you're right, they are already urlDecoded

In fact, the release notes say:
> $_GET
> Available when running in CGI mode.
> It is an array variable, translated from the QUERY_STRING. It assumes

(and it's the same for $_POST, etc.)

Thanks - I can go remove a whole bunch of urlDecode calls now :-)
