The form action should be $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']. Here case
matters, since this is a string and not a variable name.
If action is empty, I believe browsers simply send the request
to whatever URL the page was accessed at. Since you're already
at a GET (with ?addtext), the POST request actually includes
both the GET and the POST, so the the form is shown again.
Just var_dump $_GET and $_POST and you'll see what's happening.
