This line:

$SqlStatement = insert into people values('$FORM_DATA{'first_name'}','
+$FORM_DATA{'last_name'}','$currentdate');
[download]

Should probably be:

$SqlStatement = "insert into people values('$FORM_DATA{first_name}','$
+FORM_DATA{last_name}','$currentdate')";

You need to surround it with double quotes for the string to interpolate the $FORM_DATA correctly. Hope that helps.
