It may be "obvious what this does", but it is NOT obvious, from the text, HOW to do it. It
should be more clearly stated that one needs to create a second, separate, file for the php code in
this example, and name it action.php. It should also be clearly stated that one should save this
HTML to a new file, perhaps with a suggested filename, like inputs.html, and instructions to browse
to the .html file, this time, instead of the .php file.
This is a tutorial. It should be expected that some readers will not be experienced coders. They
should not be expected to know that the value of the action attribute of the form is a filename. It
may not even be obvious to experienced coders, if they don't work with HTML.
