Who remembers the old way to FTP through the URL line at Internet Explorer fifteen years ago?

This would open a file explorer window in Windows XP into the heart of the webserver wherever it was.

ftp://username:password@ipaddress/

 
 

While we are going back in time, here is how you have at a GET variable in PHP fifteen years ago:

WelcomeLabel.Text = Request.QueryString["FirstName"];

 
 

...a POST variable:

WelcomeLabel.Text = Request.Form["FirstName"];

 
 

...either way:

WelcomeLabel.Text = $_REQUEST["FirstName"];
