how does php receive <form> parameters?

Hi,

I was just curious how a PHP script in a webpage
receives the parameters that I send to it in a
form tag. It's a stupid question I suppose, but
my impression is that, by comparison, in Perl
the parsing of parameter requires the programmer
to add a line in the .pl file. Not so in PHP?

Thanks,
