Hello all. Im having a strange problem. My php outputs html correctly, and
Ive tried other builtin functions like date and that works too. But when I
try to do something as simple as passing a value from a form to a php file
and display that value, no go.

the HTML:
    <html>
    <body>
    <h1>Enter Your Name</h1>
    <form action="simplephp.php" action="POST">
    <input type="text" size="20" maxlength="20" name="user_name">
    <input type="submit" value="Submit Your Name">
    </form>
    </body>
    </html>

the PHP file:
<?php
echo "Your name is $name";
?>

I fill in my name, I click submit, and where the name should be displayed it
shows nothing. I have gone over this again and again and I just don't know
whats wrong. I also noticed that register globals was OFF so I just turned
that on, but still I have the same problem....any ideas? I really appreciate
any feedback. Thank you!
