Form variable can't transfer to web page

Dear all PHP users, I have installed a new web server for PHP scripting. I wrote a PHP form page to submit some variables to another PHP pages. After submission, I found that the variables cannot be echoed out. The scripts are as simple like these, <!-- hello2.php--> <body> <?php print "<form action=\"hello.php\" method=\"POST\">\n"; print "Name: <input type=\"text\" name=\"name\"><br>\n"; print "<input type=\"submit\">\n</form>\n"; ?> <!-- hello.php--> <body> <?php echo("Hello, $name!\n"); echo("<p>\nWhat a <b>bold</b> move this is!\n"); ?> </body> What sort of problem relating to installation is it? Thanks for any inputs and advice. Morris Law IT Coordinator Science Faculty Hong Kong Baptist University </body>
