$this->security->get returns Undefined Index error

Asked by jsherk on 2011-01-13

When I use $this->security->post['some_item'] and some_item is not set, it works fine (no error), but when you use $this->security->get['some_item'] and some_item is not set it gives you a warning/notice that says:
Undefined index: some_item

This in general is standard PHP behavior. You need to check variables are set be fore using them. The empty() function works well for this.

if (! empty($this->security->get['some_item'])) {
    // Do something...
}

Yes I see... I realized that I was checking isset() for the post but not for the get... as soon as I added isset() around the get it worked fine!

Thanks
