    The logic is:

    if (isset($_POST['comment'])) {
        // process data
        // output confirmation text
    }
    else {
        // display form
    }

    I don't understand why you display two forms, maybe I missed something.

    BTW you should use the action attribute in the form tag, and note that the
    button element is not supported by Netscape 4.x, it is more reliable to use
    the input element. Also I would give the hidden element (if you use it at
    all) a value, as I am not sure if all browsers will transmit it if there is
    none.
