Elgg\Http\Input::get	(		$variable,
			$default = null,
			$filter_result = true
	)

Get some input from variables passed submitted through GET or POST.

If using any data obtained from get_input() in a web page, please be aware that it is a possible vector for a reflected XSS attack. If you are expecting an integer, cast it to an int. If it is a string, escape quotes.

Note: this function does not handle nested arrays (ex: form input of param[m][n]) because of the filtering done in htmlawed from the filter_tags call.

Parameters

string	$variable	The variable name we want.
mixed	$default	A default value for the variable if it is not found.
bool	$filter_result	If true, then the result is filtered for bad tags.

Returns

mixed
