$_POST not passing any variables

I am constructing a advanced login system for one of my new projects, however the problem i am having is in the simplest part. the posted form data.

The data from which is not being transferred between the below pages. I have been going over this for an hour now and I cannot find a problem.

Your guys' help would be appreciated, Thanks.

Code and Notes:

login.php:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
        <title>Live Home :: Client Login</title>

        <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/core.core.css" type="text/css" />
        <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
        <script src="js/common.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
        <script src="bundles/bootstrap/js/bootstrap.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    </head>

    <body>

        <header>
          <div class="bar"></div>
            <div class="btm"></div>
        </header>


        <section id="login">
          <div class="drop">
            <div class="top">
                <h2>Live Home</h2>
                <hr class="sec-sep" style="width:100px;" />
            </div>
            <section id="FOH">
                <div class="inner">
                    <form class="form-horizontal" method="post" id="logon-form" action="auth/logon.php">
                        <div class="control-group">
                            <label class="control-label" for="inputEmail">Username / Email : </label>
                            <div class="controls">
                                <input type="text" id="inputEmail" placeholder="Username / Email" />
                            </div>
                        </div>
                        <div class="control-group">
                            <label class="control-label" for="inputPassword">Password : </label>
                            <div class="controls">
                                <input type="password" id="inputPassword" placeholder="Password" />
                            </div>
                        </div>
                        <div class="control-group">
                            <a id="login-btn" class="btn btn-primary btn-mid-login">Sign in</a>
                        </div>
                    </form>
                </div>
                <div class="login-loader"></div>
            </section>
          </div>
        </section>

    <script type="text/javascript">

    $(window).bind('load resize', setPos);

    function setPos(){
        $('#login').css({
            'margin-top':   ($(window).height() / 2) - ($('#login').height() / 2) - (($(window).height() / 100) * 10)
        });
    }

    $(document).ready( function() {

        $('#login-btn').click( function() {
            $('.inner').stop(true, true).fadeOut({ duration: 700, queue: false }).slideUp(700); 
            $('.login-loader').delay(700).fadeIn(300); 
            setTimeout(function() {
                $('#logon-form').submit();  
            },2800);
        });

    });

    </script>

    </body>
</html>

auth/logon.php:

<?php
    /**=====================================================================

    logon.php

    This file logs users into the main system.

    =======================================================================*/

    class access {

        function authenticate () {

            $user_request = $_POST;

            if(isset($user_request)){

                $username = $user_request['inputEmail'];

                $password = $user_request['inputPassword'];

                var_dump($_POST);

            }else{

                header("Location: ../../login.php");

            }

        }

    }

    $access = new access();
    $access -> authenticate();
?>

I would change

if(isset($user_request)){

to

if(isset($user_request['inputEmail'], $user_request['inputPassword'])){

And also put an exit statement in the if-body to be sure the code ends where you expect it to. That header Location may happen so fast you don't see it.

Your input fields have no 'name' attributes.

The reason is that PHP uses the name attribute. if your input is name = 'test' that in PHP it would be $_POST['test']
