    Based on the two codes you have show us above it should be:
    
<HTML>
<HEAD></HEAD>
<BODY>
Your favorite Author is:
<?php
echo $_POST['$Author'];
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>
    Code (markup):
    Or if you have change that to method=get than its echo $_GET['$Author'];

    i solved the prob. the prob wasn't in the code. it was in the php version. i was reading a php4 book and using php5. most of the people use php5 now. so i start reading php5 book. now prob solved.
