Hi Mario,
you can set error_reporting to E_ALL to give you more hints to
bugs and to produce clean code.
You are having two problems. The first was related to your form
and has been addressed by Yasin.
The second is that you have autoglobals off. That means you have
to use $_SERVER['PHP_SEL

Why don't you take the guesswork out of it a bit, and NOT write to a file
just yet... instead, just echo the var to the screen. IF that works, then
we know it's not your form that is the problem, it's the exec().
