You need to check like this:

if (isset($action)  $action == 'add')

AND if it is 4.1 + and global vars are turned off??

if (isset($_GET['action'])  $_GET['action'] == 'add')

** The above will need to changed if it is POST in the above example!!

 It would help to know where $action is being defined.
