OK I'm an idiot. I now see what must be done to get the script
to run (upload). But this is a site for tuition and I think we
novices can easliy miss what, to you, can be "obvious."

Description:
------------
Hi. Apparent web site bug in example "Dealing with forms" 2-6
and 2-7. I have copied-and-pasted both sets of code, creating
two pages. When I enter data in the first and hit "submit" the
second page does not output as expected. Instead, it outputs
the actual code. BBEdit 8.24 for page construction, Safari
2.03 for display.
Cheers,
grh
Next field is the code on my two pages. Only the first gives
me an expected result.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<form action="action.php" method="post">
<p>Your name: <input type="text" name="name" /></p>
<p>Your age: <input type="text" name="age" /></p>
<p><input type="submit" /></p>
</form>
---------------------------------------------------------
Hi <?php echo $_POST['name']; ?>.
You are <?php echo $_POST['age']; ?> years old.
Expected result:
----------------
As reported in your example
Actual result:
--------------
Hi <?php echo $_POST['name']; ?>.
You are <?php echo $_POST['age']; ?> years old.
