I meant you should use underscores in variable names:

CODE
$Date_of_Birth = stripslashes($Date_of_Birth);


But you shouldn't use it between variables and equal signs:

CODE
$Date_of_Birth_=_stripslashes($Date_of_Birth);


Since this has turned into a PHP topic I'll move it to the appropriate forum (and remove a couple of redundant replies).

Maybe it's that question mark in the variable

CODE
$Which_of_the_three_would_you_like_to_be?


that's messing up things, try removing it. You can read more here on how to name PHP variables: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.php

For practical purposes I also recommend that you use much shorter variable names (as long as you remember what they're for).
