Could somebody tell me why this is not working?

When i enter stuff into the text box and click Search it just spits out hihihihihihihi and so on until the server crashes.

Code:

<form action="<? echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" method="post">
<textarea name="text" cols="50" rows="20" wrap="OFF"></textarea>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search">
<input type ="hidden" name="action" value ="Search">
</form>

PHP Code:

  <?php

if ($_POST['action'] == "Search") 

        {

                        $cock = $_post['text'];

                        $file = fopen($cock, 'r');

                        while (!feof($file)) 

                        {

                                $lines = fgets($file);

 
                                if (strpos($lines, 'VALID') !== FALSE) 

                                    {

                                        $guids = substr($lines, 0, strpos($lines, '('));

                                        $guids1 = substr($guids, -8);

                                        $names = trim(substr($lines, strpos($lines, ')')+1));

                                        echo "<b>Guid:</b> $guids1 <b>Alias:</b> $names";

                                        echo "<br>";

                                        //mysql_pconnect ($DBhost, $DBuser, $DBpass) or die("Unable to connect to database");

                                        //mysql_select_db ($DBName) or die("Unable to select database $DBName");

 
                                        //if (mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $table WHERE guid = '$guids1' and WHERE alias = '$names'")) < 1) //{

                                        //        $sql = mysql_query(" INSERT INTO $table (guid, alias) VALUES ('$guids1', '$names') ");

                                        //}

                                        //else print 'Entry already listed';

                                    }

                                    else 

                                        {

                                        print 'hi';

                                        }

                        }

            }

            else 

                {

                print 'something';

                }

?>

Try changing:

PHP Code:

  if ($_POST['action'] == "Search")

to:

PHP Code:

  if($_POST['submit'])

or try this :

if (isset($_POST["submit"])){
}
