Just tried the form...seems to work for me.

 

Array
(
    [username] => play
    [password] => secret
    [website] => a
    [email] => b
    [pages] => c
    [db] => d
    [dbuser] => e
    [dbpass] => f
    [dbname] => g
    [cname] => h
    [cemail] => i
    [submit] => submit
)

 

And given your code, the form is redirecting to the page it's on (index.php) and not step2.php
