Making a form and then using post to display. Doesn't work ?

Index.php

<body>
<form action="test.php" method=post>
<table width="200" border="0">
  <tr>
    <td>Username:</td>
    <td><input type="text" name="username" size="40" maxlength="40" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Password</td>
<td><input type="password" name="password" size="40" maxlength="40" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Name:</td>
  <td><input type="text" name="name" size="40" maxlength="40" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
  <td colspan=2 align=center><input type=submit value="Submit"></td>
</tr>
</table>

</body>

test.php

<p>Your Information</p>
<?php
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$username = $_POST['confirm'];
$DOCUMENT_ROOT = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
echo '<p>Your username is:'.$username.'</p>'; 
echo '<br>Your password is:'; echo $password;
echo '<br><p>Your name is:'.$name.'</p>';
?>

Only Password shows when I write it. I tried changing the username and name fields echo to the same as password and it still doesn't work. Help please?

where did you close the form ? </form>

to know the indexes in your $POST array,
usethe:

echo "<pre>";
printr_r($_POST);
echo "</pre>";

for debugging it.

And you should check $name in your process code... $_POST["confirm"] is undefined.
