What did I do wrong?

[eediva]

Hey everyone it's me again
i'm trying to create a form with php, i already know my code is sorta wack, but i can't debug bcos i'm not quite sure about how to fix it.
Anyways here's the problem code, and the bolded text is where the problem lies, can someone please show me a better way of writing it or how to fix it. thanks!

<?PHP
$name=$HTTP_POST_VARS['name'];
$email=$HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
$guests = $HTTP_POST_VARS['guests'];
$address = $HTTP_POST_VARS['address'];
$set = $HTTP_POST_VARS['set'];
$femail = "From: ".$name." <".$email.">";
$date=$HTTP_POST_VARS['date'];
$info=$HTTP_POST_VARS['info'];

$body = "You have recieved a registration from your site.\n\n""Name:".$name "\nEmail:".$email "\n# of Guests:".$guests; "\nClass Set/Graduation Year:".$set; "\nAddress:" .$address;

mail("[e-mail]", "Message from Website", $body, $femail) or die("<font color=\"red\"> Could not execute send mail function.</font>");

header("Location: http://www.sagamureunion.com/");
?>

$body = "You have recieved a registration from your site.\n\nName:$name\nEmail:$email\n# of Guests:$guests;\nClass Set/Graduation Year:$set;\nAddress:$address";

thank you! ok i'm still getting an error from the line of code with
mail("...")
i just bolded that part too, it's worked fine before, i dunno what could be wrong

[thorpe]

what is the error?

[eediva]

i can't figure it out either, when i test out the form on the webpage i get this error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in http://www.sagamureunion.com/register2.php on line 13

which is the code i posted above.

The purpose of the form is for users to fill out the info and have it emailed to me, while users are redirected to a webpage i specified.

Post the updated code, including a line before and after.

[eediva]

i don't get what you're trying to tell me

[eediva]

can anyone help please?!

you still going with this? post your code! and put it inside the built in forum php blocks so its syntax gets highlighted. the highlighting helps find problems.

lol i'm trying it out....

<?PHP
$yourmail="[e-mail]"
$name=$_POST['alumni'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$guests=$_POST['guests'];
$address=$_POST['address'];
$set=$_POST['set'];


$body = "You have recieved a registration from your site.\n\n Name: $name \nEmail: $email\n # of Guests: $guests \nClass 

Set/Graduation Year: $set \nAddress: $address";

mail($yourmail, "Registration from SagamuReunion", $body);

header("Location: [url]http://www.sagamureunion.com/confirmation.php[/url]");
?>

[eediva]

well it looks fine to me, it says:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE on line 3

[thorpe]

what....? you cant see the last line? see how most of it is orange? that meens its turned itself into some sort of busted comment.

change it to.

header("Location: confirmation.php");

You've missed out a semicolon at the end of the 2nd line.

How much do you know about php?

[eediva]
