    I've heard that $HTTP_POST_VARS can be/should be replaced with $_POST and $HTTP_GET_VARS can be/should be replaced with $_GET for better compatability with later PHP versions. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find anything about this.

    Does anyone have any links to something explaining this please?

    There's not much more to find than you already know. The $HTTP_*_VARS variables are deprecated (for PHP versions 4.0.1+) and you should use the others instead.

    What exactly do you need help with?

    Pretty much that, thanks. Wanted confirmation and explanation of the difference before I started replacing everything.
