That's correct behavior. As you're simply running action.php on its own,
it sees that $_POST['name'] and $_POST['age'] don't exist and outputs a
notice for each.
To avoid the notices, ensure that those keys exist before calling
something like echo on them:
<?php
if (!empty($_POST['name'])) {
echo $_POST['name'];
} else {
echo 'Name not set';
}
if (!empty($_POST['age'])) {
echo $_POST['age'];
} else {
echo 'Age not set';
}
?>
HTH!
