I have this now:
<form action="add.php" method="post">
I also tried method="get" -- i can see the variables
in the url too. I have double checked spelling etc.
This line prints nothing - not even a space I think:
printf ("These values were inserted into the database
- %s %s", $firstname, $surname);
