// Required objects

$input = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
 


// Get the form data

$formData = new JRegistry($input->get('jform', '', 'array'));
 


// Get any data being able to use default values

$id    = $formData->get('id', 0);

$name  = $formData->get('name', null);

$email = $formData->get('email', null);

Or even better to be able to get sanitized values use a JInput object:

// Required objects

$input = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
 


// Get the form data

$formData = new JInput($input->get('jform', '', 'array'));
 


// Get any data being able to use default values

$id    = $formData->getInt('id', 0);

$name  = $formData->getWord('name');

$email = $formData->getString('email');

That way we will use the ability of JInput to get sanitized values directly through JFilterInput. You can see all the filters available here. JInput uses the magic method __call to use them transparently. So if you want to use filter 'BASE64' you can direcly use $formData->getBase64(), $formData->getAlnum() for 'ALNUM' filter and so....

In this second example I have removed also the default null values because null is applied by default when no value is passed.
