Thanks for the input. However it does no good if the variables are empty,
which is my problem. The darn $_POST thing does not work at all
for me, and I am trying to find out why.

What's up David... This script *should* work... I don't see any errors,
but try this anyways. In your change your print command to this:
print("Hello, " . $name . "! You are " . $age . " years old!");
What those periods do is simply append them to each other, so in this
case, you have the string, then you're appending the variable, then
appending another string, then another variable, then the last string.
Instead of having it all bunched up.
