empty() doesn't behave exactly as you'd expect. You can read up on it
here:
<http://www.php.net/empty>
The short of the matter is that 1) all input coming from a form (i.e.
through $_POST) will be a string; 2) empty() returns true for false, 0,
"0" (the string 0), "" (the empty string), and null. So, if the user
inputs 0 into the form, your !empty() test fails and you get -1.
An easy fix that will give you the desired behavior (-1 if they put in
nothing or something other than a number) would be to switch your
!empty() calls to is_numeric(). This will return true for any numeric
string ("0", "0.0", "42.2", etc.) and false for anything else
(including the empty string).
