the error message is undefined variable team in xxx.php
print("$team");

the variable $team is not defined. most likely to be caused by an configuration option in php.ini -> register_globals = off
wich means that posted variables are not made global in you're script.
leave it off, it's off for security reasons.

you can acces posted variables with $_REQUEST['team'] or $_GET['team']
$HTTP_POST_VARS['team'] if you're using an older php-version.
