I thought the only good programmer is a lazy programmer. 
Does that philosophy not hold anymore?

I generally put the script name in the action="" manually.  But for those 
here who are enthralled with lazy-assed magic, you could do something 
like this, which I alluded to before:

<form method="post" action="<?php echo basename(__FILE__) ?>">
