Thanks Chris and all the rest that replied with suggestions. I appreciate the help you all gave me.
I made the following change to my phpinfo.php script and got my desired result:
<?
print("\$testme - " . $HTTP_POST_VARS["testme"] . "<br>\n");
phpinfo();
?>
I still don't know whyI have to make that adjustment though.. Any ideas out there?

would not having <?php in the phpinfo script cause that?
