So I'm having problems figuring this out. When i have exemple.com/index.php?x=true, will the value of x with $_GET["x"] be "true" as a String or true as a Boolean.

2It will be a string. You should just use truthy/falsey values (E.G `1` and `0` respectively) – GrumpyCrouton Oct 02 '17 at 19:43

All values from `$_GET[]`, `$_POST[]` and `$_REQUEST[]` are strings. PHP only parses the request and put the pieces there, it's your task to interpret them as you want. – axiac Oct 02 '17 at 19:44

1I personally would never use `true` or `false` as a value in a `$_GET` request.. instead just a integer `1` or `0` or yes/no etc – Thielicious Oct 02 '17 at 19:45
