Getting Variables from a form...

I've been using perl for a while and am just starting with PHP.  I like it.

Is there an array that holds all the information that was submitted via a
FORM post or get.

I know that PHP automatically creates variables that are named after the
name of the INPUT tag on the HTML form.  But what if I don't know what the
names of the input tags are?

Are they stored in a HASH array as well?

What is the name of the array?

I.E. in perl, if you use cgi-lib.pl, all the form elements are stored in a
HASH array called %in.  You don't need to know the names of the input tags
to get the data from them.

HTML HAS...
<input name="joe" type="text>
<input name="alice type="text>

PERL Example.
# library for handling CGI in
require 'cgi-lib.pl';

# get all the info from the form,
# put it in HASH array called %in
&ReadParse();

foreach $key (sort keys %in) {
    print $in{$key};
}

PHP EXAMPLE...
# is there a hash array equivalent of %in like in the perl above?
