Actually, this code has a submit form, which is where I would assume the
variable values come from. Make sure that register_gloabls is on. Add
phpinfo() to the end of the script to check the current value of
register_globals. If it is off, which is preferable, then you need to use
$_POST (PHP v4.1+) or $HTTP_POST_VARS. As of 4.2.0, register_globals if OFF
by default.
