With newer installations of PHP, form data does not by default show up in 
eponymous variables. This has been discussed at great length here - just 
check the archives for any random day in the past month or so. 

For best results, write the print statement like this:

   print "Your first name is {$_REQUEST['FirstName']}.<br>\n";

and you'll get the results you're after.

That's ridiculous. Buy a new book.
