PHP $_REQUEST Variable

I have a question regarding the $_REQUEST global variable in php. When you have a get and a post submitted with the same variable name does php assign priority to either of them? Ie. if I have $_POST['var'] as well as $_GET['var'] submitted to a page would $_REQUEST['var'] contain the post or the get or would it do some other type of assignment?

Thanks!

It depends on the request_order configuration directive (quoting) :

This directive describes the order in which PHP registers GET, POST and Cookie variables into the _REQUEST array.


Also take a look at [`variables_order`][2] : some additional explanations *(like the letters that can be used)* are there -- and it also affects `$_REQUEST`.
