Test script:

print_r($_GET);
//or
print_r(filter_input_array(INPUT_GET));

Expected result:

        )

)

The HTTP/URL specs do not give special consideration for the [] array syntax that PHP (and a couple other languages) support. = is a reserved character and if needed for something other than its reserved purpose then it must be percent-encoded.

As for the underscore, PHP starts with "query1[" as the key and it replaces the '[' with an underscore for historical purposes.
