session_start();

if (isset($_POST['submit']) && isset($_POST['cgender'])) {

	

	$_SESSION['cgender'] = $_POST['cgender'];

var_dump($_POST);

//header("location:education_1.php");



}

?>

its a good idea to get into the habit of using correct syntax.

any self contained tag should be closed in itself, by that i mean

code:

<input typ="radio" name="whatever" value="whatever" />



<br />



<hr />



<img src="some_link" alt="some text" />

this will make your pages valid XHTML 1.1
