If you have error reporting set high enough you would have seen a warning
about "Use of undefined constant submit...". You should use:
if ($_POST['submit']) {

If you're referring to array variables inside a double-quoted string you
should enclose it within {}. Thus:
$query = "INSERT INTO inventory
(registration,type,total_time,price,description,picture_name)
VALUES
('{$_POST['registration']}','{$_POST['type']}',...)";
