I am embarrassed to ask this, but I've worked on this for hours and I
can't seem to find what the error is. I am trying to teach myself php
and I am in the very early stages of understanding it. I have a book
that I am walking through. I created a form to validate...all pieces
I've coded work, except the piece for the age drop down. There are 3
options, 0-20, 30-60, and 60+. What in the code is wrong here? I
understand this might not be the most efficient way to code this, but
like I said, I'm just starting.

I'm sure anyone with php knowledge could help me out with this in a
second.

Thanks in advance. Code below:

---------

if (isset($_REQUEST['age'])) {
$ = $_REQUEST['age'];

if ($age == '0-29') {
echo '<p>Your age selection was between 0-29</p>';
}elseif ($age == '30-60') {
echo '<p>You age selection was between 30-60</p>';
}elseif ($age == '60+') {
echo '<p>You age selection was between 60+</p>';
}else{
$age = NULL;
echo '<p><font color="red">You forgot to select you age!</font></p>';
}
