Well, straight forward I can see something very wrong with your code: you didn't define any <head> tags, and you closed the <body> tag without opening it.

About the error, I just tried that exact same code and I had no problem. The only way that should give you trouble is if you try to access the home.php by itself, not through the form.

You get that notice because the GET array does not always contain that value. You can solve it by doing something like this:

$u1 = isset($_GET['username']) ? $_GET['username'] : '';
$e1 = isset($_GET['enrollno']) ? $_GET['enrollno'] : 0;

This way they always get a default value.

$u1 = isset($_GET['username']) ? $_GET['username'] : '';
$e1 = isset($_GET['enrollno']) ? $_GET['enrollno'] : 0;
