Yaf_Request_Abstract::get example

<?php
class SearchController extends Yaf_Controller_Abstract
{
    public function indexAction()
    {
        $request = $this->getRequest();

        // Assuming the request is /search?keyword=yaf&page=2
        $keyword = $request->get("keyword");
        $page    = (int) $request->get("page", 1);
        $sort    = $request->get("sort", "relevance");

        var_dump($keyword, $page, $sort);
    }
}
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

string(3) "yaf"
int(2)
string(9) "relevance"
