Between 4.7.x and 5.x, the Forms API changed how data was represented in $_REQUEST — 5.x removed the ['edit'] subarray. Since this was changed so easily, and wasn't commented on anywhere, it seems that the way I access the request data is unsuppported, and there may be a better way.

The issue is that my page needs to have form submission via GET, so that when theme('table'...) creates the headers with sort links, those links maintain the current display and filter state, while changing the sort information.

Ricky,

I believe there were drastic changes to the form api in drupal 5. I'm not familiar with how things were in 4.7, but http://drupal.org/node/101707 is a great reference for multipage forms using the new api functionality.

Hope it helps.
Matt
