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);
