1.) You've not retrieved the variables from the $_POST array before you try to echo them. You need to do something like:

<?php 
$name = $_POST['name'];
echo $name;
//Or just echo $_POST['name'];
?>

2.) You dont execute your query. Try:

<?php
$sql="INSERT INTO $tbl_name(name, address, address1, address2, address3, address4, county, zip, telephone, email, username, password, usertype)VALUES('$name', '$address', '$address1', '$address2','$address3', '$address4','$county' ,'$zip', '$telephone', '$email', '$username', '$password' , 1)";
mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error().'<br /> Query was:'.$sql);
?>
