i would guess your current problems is that you are redirecting at some point in the code and any output you might be sending is being buffered and discarded so you never see it.

 

two things -

 

1) you need to make sure output_buffering is turned off in your php.ini

2) comment out any header() redirects until after you get your code to do what you want.

if(isset($_POST['submit']) && 'submit' === $_POST['submit'])
{
 echo 'hello';
 ..............
 ..............
 ..............
}
else
{
 echo 'hi'
}

try sample one, above.. if the output is "hi". your post is working else your code inside the open parenthesis are wrong..
