the real problem though, based on your previous post is that you are not
using the correct varaible. It should be $_POST['submit']; and yes, you
should test for it, using isset or somthing similar like
check out the section of the manual on register_globals. yours is set to
off.
if ($_POST['submit] == 'Enter information') {
some stuff
}

Hi
Well...
If you look at your script, you'll see that you are trying to test on
$submit, the 'problem' is that you have not defined $submit, not as a local
var and not as a var from eg a URL, in other words: You are trying to test
on something that you have not yet defined - IMHO 'sloppy' code.
You can however remove the error message by using the error_reporting() or
change error_reporting in the php.ini, but the best solution is to either
test if the var isset or define and assign it before using it !
eg:
if(isset($submit) && $submit === true)
{
....
}
Best
