# WebCommon.DataSource(3kaya)

Data sources for incoming data

## NAME

WebCommon::DataSource - Data sources for incoming data

## SYNOPSIS

**WebCommon::DataSource\<** **\>**

-

  \=  **DataGet(****)**

-

  \|  **DataPost(****)**

-

  \|  **DataRequest(****)**

-

  \|  **DataCookie(****)**

-

  \|  **DataNone(****)**

## DESCRIPTION

Data sources for user-supplied data. **DataGet**  is GET data, **DataPost**  is POST data. **DataRequest**  is a combination of the two (except that if any keys that occur in both sources, only the values from POST will be available for these sources). **DataCookie**  retrieves cookies, and **DataNone**  is always empty.

**DataRequest**  should only be used where the application is genuinely expected to receive user-supplied data by both request methods (for example, a search form).
