php mail form text wont appear / javascript included

Guys/gals...
I am running into a problem whereby I have a great piece of javascript code that mimicks multi-page forms (see www.mtsgroup.co.uk/multiPageForm.htm).....
The problem is the php file wont handle saving and sending the filled in forms by email (the emails are blank).....
The php works fine on single page forms and the multiform javascript works fine when I put a print screen action rather than a send via email.... so there must be something in the php that isn't liking retrieving the saved text and sending it via email.....
The html script is as follows
<html>
<head>
<title>Multi-Page Form</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
var currentLayer = 'page1';
function showLayer(lyr){
hideLayer(currentLayer);
document.getElementById(lyr).style.visibility = 'visible';
currentLayer = lyr;
}
function hideLayer(lyr){
document.getElementById(lyr).style.visibility = 'hidden';
}
function showValues(form){
var values = '';
var len = form.length - 1; //Leave off Submit Button
for(i=0; i<len; i++){
if(form.id.indexOf("C")!=-1||form.id.indexOf("B")!=-1)//Skip Continue and Back Buttons
continue;
values += form.id;
values += ': ';
values += form.value;
values += 'n';
}
alert(values);
}
</script>
<style>
body{
font: 10pt sans-serif;
}
.page{
position: absolute;
top: 10;
left: 100;
visibility: hidden;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<form id="multiForm" method="POST" action="FormToEmail.php">
<div id="page1" class="page" style="visibility:visible;">
