From POST to GET: $_FILES empty

I'm passing the code from $_POST to $_GET.

I've a page upload using $_FILES. when the page was in $_POST, it worked
fine, but now, in $_GET, the $_FILES is empty.

any idea ?

File uploads only work with POST.

If you want to upload files, you _must_ use POST for the form.
