PHP_SELF is part of the $_SERVER super global, you should really
access it like this:

$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

To answer your question though, it's just a variable - if you want to
output it into your form action then you can do either:

<? echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?> or <?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>

Either would work.

Best regards,

Richard Davey
