If the var_dump($_POST) is showing array(0), then either the form hasn't been submitted, or something is interfering with it, such as the JS. I don't see any logic in the code that checks for form submission.

Many people use if( isset($_POST['name_of_submit_input_here']) ) { however some browsers handle that value poorly when the user hits enter instead of clicking the button, so that method isn't as reliable as it should be. Adding a hidden field to the form and checking for its value is pretty universally accepted as being reliable.

 

<?php
if( isset($_POST['submitted']) && $_POST['submitted'] == 'yes' ) {
     echo 'Form was submitted.<br>';
     echo '$_POST array contains:<pre>';
     print_r($_POST);
     echo '</pre>';
}
?>
<html>
etc.
<body>
<form method="post" action="">
<input type="text" name="text_input"><br>
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="yes">
<input type="submit" value="Send Form">
</form>
