$_REQUEST can be useful if you don't care whether a particular variable is sent via an HTTP POST method (in the body of the request) or in the query string of the URL. If you do decide to use $_REQUEST be aware of the order in which PHP loads variables in to the array. This is determined by the variables_order directive in the php.ini file.
