Well I would consider myself a php noob but I might as well throw out
suggestions. First of all form action i would just make test.php
(assuming it is same directory). Also I would just do
echo $_POST['feet']; just to see if it is actually getting the value
before you do anything to it
hope that helps to some degree, if not wait for one of the pros to
reply
:D
