Problem with Forms!

I have scripted an input form which outputs using POST method and all of the posts work bar one!

I am using FPDF and want to change the font colour, so I have devised a method where I have created a string for the RGB values, like so: 255000000 = Red and so on.  This method worked previously, but I am trying to streamline the scripts to make it easier to maintain.  In the latest version of the script it does not work since I added the Select input method.  I added a SELECT list in front of the previous script to enable the user to select a card size.

I am puzzled why only this part does not work and the rest does?

Here is the script for the form:

Can anyone see where I have gone wrong?

//check the variable is being passed through
if (isset($_POST['CSize'])){
echo 'CSize is '.$_POST['CSize'];
}

// also your query should be quoted correctly
$Get_Size_sql = "SELECT * FROM `csize` WHERE `Size` ='".$_POST["CSize"]."'";

// try echoing out the whole query string aswell
echo $Get_Size_sql ;

 

and switch your error handling on
