I do have experience with that but in order for me to help you, I'll need
more infos. If you could send some snippets of code it would surely help.

Besides that, are you sure your script really catches the input from your
form ? Are you printing an HTTP header (eg Content-type: text/html) along
with your output ? Are you accessing your script locally or trough IP
(Internet) ? Is your server setup properly ?

If you could answer a few of those questions, I could probably help you out.
