I wasn't aware you could use = instead of echo (<? =$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']
?>). Try making an even simpler HTML/PHP example and see if the problem
exists there. Then you can incrementally build your HTML/PHP back up to the
point where it is breaking. Example:
<?php
print_r($_POST);
?>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="testvar" value="pleasedontcorrupt" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
</body>
