php - $_POST not populated -

i'm having issues php rest api of app.

i'm submitting parameters in correct url format: baseurl?param1=val1&param2=val2

however, parameters being filled $_get array instead. i've looked $_server array see if there wrong there, can't see obvious.

$_server['content_type']="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" $_server['request_method']="post" 

i've checked php.ini post_max_size misconfig:

post_max_size=32m 

i'm not able figure else cause parameters placed $_get

if helps, i'm using xampp on windows.

also, using "advanced rest client" chrome, i've noticed regardless of method, post parameters placed $_get if parameters in url, if move them rest client's payload field, show post parameters.

you cannot parameters via $_post submitted in query-string. can them via $_get array.

but if move them rest client's payload field, show post parameters., seeing trouble, can them $_request
