What are you printing? Does the included file do it?

That's because $var1 isn't defined. Perhaps you're using an old text or
code that ran with register_globals enabled. That's a security hole,
and the default now is to have it turned off (as it should be).

Use

printf("-----%s", $_GET['var1']);

instead, as you had it in the include statement.
Or,

$var1 = $_GET['var1'];

and your current printf will work.

Which method is your form using - GET or POST? One or the other.

It doesn't. That's an error message due to the uninitialized variable.

Looks like your logic is just a little messed up here.
