You'll probably get 50 answers to this, but here's probably what happened.
There's a setting called "register globals" that will turn your
name=me and age=27 into $name = "me" and $age = "27". It used to be
turned ON by default. This was generally considered to be bad
security, so it now defaults to OFF.
To get these variables, just use the $_GET system variable.
$name = $_GET['name'];
$age = $_GET['age'];
Easy!
Best of luck!

Just to add to -TG advice, you should also clean those inputs. IWO,
make sure the values fall within what you expect. Basic security.
