Learning to utilize PHP will help you in processing HTML requests. When our front end client makes a request to our server, our backend PHP, specific superglobals related to that request are available through our PHP script. Superglobals are global variables that are automatically available in all scopes throughout our script file. The list of superglobals is $GLOBALS, $_GET, $_SERVER, $_POST, $_FILES, $_COOKIE, $_REQUEST, $_ENV, and $_SESSION. These provide useful information about the request and can give you valuable information about your site's visitors. Learning to use PHP superglobals will aid you in becoming an expert PHP developer. Make sure to learn how Superglobals work, and how you can access Superglobal variables in requests that come into your server.
