is your server running PHP? is it activated? are you on Linux, Windows or Mac?

i thing you should run your php code in localhost i mean open your browser then type url localhost/ then go to the dirctory where you have your html form and run... then it works if the php code has no errors... or else there is another possible case where the action page should be saved with .php extension ...
