how to make html work in php

I am trying to get this PHP code working with my html. The PHP alone work but when im trying to use the html form and use PHP code it does not do anything at all. I've been trying to figure this out but without any success. Can somebody please explain what I am doing wrong?

    <?php

include_once("config.php");  
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
       //Perform the verification

       $uname = $_POST['uname'];
       $email = $_POST['email'];
       $email2 = $_POST['email2'];
       $pass = $_POST['pass'];
       $pass2 = $_POST['pass2'];

       if($email == $email2){
        if($pass == $pass2){
            //All good. Carry on.

        $query = $sql->prepare("INSERT INTO login (uname, email, pass) VALUES (?, ?, ?)");
        $query->bind_param('sss', $uname, $email, $pass );
        $query -> execute();
        header("Location: index.html");

        }else{
            echo "Passwords do not match.<br />";
            exit();
            }
        }else{
            echo "Emails do not match.<br /><br />";
            exit();
            }
    $sql->close();
    $query->close();
        }
?>

EXTRA TIP : Your HTML textbox name is mismatch with the $_POST variable, I'll give a short example : <input type="text" name="usernamesignup" /> should be $_POST["usernamesignup"], not $_POST["uname"].

You did not give your submit button a name.

<input type="submit" value="Sign up"/>

Without a name, the value of the input won't be sent to the server. Basically submitting the form will find that if(isset( and skip the entire code.

You should add the name="submit" attribute to your submit button. Otherwise $_POST['submit'] will never be set, and nothing will happen.

Your problem is here, you're checking if there is a post variable named submit:

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

But your form doesn't have any input named submit. I suggest changing to:

if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'){

Checking the REQUEST_METHOD is better because it doesn't rely on the submit button being present in the post data.
