fetch array from url via GET request

Question

Am trying to fetch an array from url via get request but am unable to do that

This is my URL with values encoded

    http://example.com/q.php?sub[]=xyz&sub[]=wsq

this is how am trying to store the values in another array

    $sub= array();
    $sub[]= $_GET['sub[]'];

Am not getting any result but if I run my page by manually initializing the array am getting the desired result without any issue

No, just access it as $_GET['sub']; in turn, it'll return an array of values.

Then you could just iterate it just like any array:

foreach($_GET['sub'] as $sub) {
    echo $sub;
}

What it should look like.

But it doesn't behave as an array . means if i use foreach loop then it gives a blank result

sorry sorry my mistake. i got the desired result. thanks a lot

@user3225075 yes it will behave like an array if you put them in a grouping name key parameter, check out what i mean codepad.viper-7.com/8PgIcw?sub[]=xyz&sub[]=wsq
