$_GET parse error

Recommended Posts

Hi, I have a simple html file as follows:

 

<html>
<body>
<form method="GET" action="retrieve.php">
First Name: <input type="text" name="first_name" size="25" maxlength="25">
Last Name: <input type="text" name="last_name" size="25" maxlength="25">
<input type="submit" /> 
</form>
</body>
</html>

 

that sends data to retrieve.php, which is as follows:

 

<?php
$first_name = GET["first_name"];
$last_name = GET["last_name"];
?>

 

very simple, I know, but I keep getting a parse error when I try to run it. Please help! I've tried all sorts of variations on the syntax, but nothing will work. It's probably a very stupid mistake I am making, but if someone sees it, please tell me!

 

Many thanks.
