PHP is indeed working. If I use METHOD=GET instead of POST, the script works
without any issues. Here is the test script I'm using:
<html>
<title>test script</title>
<body>
<?php
        //If the user wants to add a joke
        if(isset($_GET['addtext'])):

You're checking for a get string here, not a post string. So it will
never get into this part of the code.
