Thanks !! My first post is a typo (missing the parenthesis ). But I just
make it work by using double quote for ssn:

if(empty($_POST["ssn"])){
....

The single quote will work if I assign the variable first, but won't work if
I don't. But it is working fine now with the double quote... Some kind of
type casting ?

-Regards,
Steven
