Perhaps because empty strings were send. You're not telling us your PHP 
version. If you have 4.2.0 or later, register_globals is by default 
disabled and $customer_name, $customer_address and $customer_contact_no 
won't be registered. You'll need to use $_GET array to get those values. 
Moreover, you don't escape strings.

Maybe you should try this
  $query  = "insert into customer values(";
  $query .= "'" . pg_escape_string($_GET['customer_name']) . "', ";
  $query .= "'" . pg_escape_string($_GET['customer_address']) . "', ";
  $query .= "'" . pg_escape_string($_GET['customer_contact_no']) . "')";
  $result = pg_query($connect, $query);
