Yes, that would be the reason.

You're not performing any checks on the input you're getting from your form.
The most simple check for whether the form was submitted is to use:
if (!empty($_POST)) { // form was submitted }
or
if (!empty($_GET)) { // form was submitted }
In addition you should always perform sanity checks on values of the
individual form elements. Search the archives/web for 'sql injection' for
more info.
