Select menu in a form, submitted with PHP

[Stinkythe1]

Hey everyone. I got a question that should be easy to fix. I've got a form that I want to send the results to an email address. Everything works, except the state part.

Here's the HTML:

<h1>Contact Information</h1>
			<form method="post" action="cgi-bin/send2.php">
    Name:<br><input name="name" type="text" size="30"><br><br>
    Email:<br><input name="email" type="text" size="30"><br><br>
    Phone Number:<br><input name="phone" type="text" size="30"><br><br>
    Address:<br><input name="address" type="text" size="30"><br><br>
    City:<br><input name="city" type="text" size="30"><br><br>
    State:<br><select id="state">
        <option>-Select one-</option>
        <option>Alabama</option>
        <option>Alaska</option>
        <option>Arizona</option>
        <option>Arkansas</option>
        <option>California</option>
        <option>Colorado</option>
        <option>Connecticut</option>
        <option>Delaware</option>
        <option>District of Columbia</option>
        <option>Florida</option>
        <option>Georgia</option>
        <option>Hawaii</option>
        <option>Idaho</option>
        <option>Illinois</option>
        <option>Indiana</option>
        <option>Iowa</option>
        <option>Kansas</option>
        <option>Kentucky</option>
        <option>Louisiana</option>
        <option>Maine</option>
        <option>Maryland</option>
        <option>Massachusetts</option>
        <option>Michigan</option>
        <option>Minnesota</option>
        <option>Mississippi</option>
        <option>Missouri</option>
        <option>Montana</option>
        <option>Nebraska</option>
        <option>Nevada</option>
        <option>New Hampshire</option>
        <option>New Jersey</option>
        <option>New Mexico</option>
        <option>New York</option>
        <option>North Carolina</option>
        <option>North Dakota</option>
        <option>Ohio</option>
        <option>Oklahoma</option>
        <option>Oregon</option>
        <option>Pennsylvania</option>
        <option>Rhode Island</option>
        <option>South Carolina</option>
        <option>South Dakota</option>
        <option>Tennessee</option>
        <option>Texas</option>
        <option>Utah</option>
        <option>Vermont</option>
        <option>Virginia</option>
        <option>Washington</option>
        <option>West Virginia</option>
        <option>Wisconsin</option>
        <option>Wyoming</option>
    </select><br><br>
    Zip Code:<br><input name="zip" type="text" size="30"><br><br>
    Comments:<br><textarea name="msg" cols="25" rows="6"></textarea><br><br>
    <input type="submit" value="Send">&nbsp;<input type="reset" value="Reset">
   </form>

Then the PHP in a seperate file:

<?php
$to         = "[e-mail]"; 
$name       = $_POST['name'];
$email      = $_POST['email'];
$phone    = $_POST['phone'];
$address        = $_POST['address'];
$city        = $_POST['city'];
$state        = $_POST['state'];
$zip        = $_POST['zip'];
$msg        = $_POST['msg'];
$sub        = "Message from Cavephotography.net";
$headers    = "From: $name <$email>\n";  

$headers   .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$mes        = "Name: ".$name."\n";
$mes       .= "Email: ".$email."\n";
$mes       .= "Phone: ".$phone."\n";
$mes       .= "Address: ".$address."\n";
$mes       .= "City: ".$city."\n";
$mes       .= "State: ".$state."\n";
$mes       .= "zip: ".$zip."\n";
$mes       .= "Comments: ".$msg."\n";
if(empty($name) || empty($email) || empty($city) || empty($zip)) {
     echo "   <h3>Sorry all fields are required.</h3>";
} elseif(!ereg("^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$", $email)) {
     print "   <h3>Sorry the email address you entered looks like it's invalid.</h3>";
} else {
     mail($to, $sub, $mes, $headers);
     print "   <h1><center>Thank you ".$name." for contacting us.<br>We will get back to you as soon as possible.</center></h1>"; 
}
?>

I know it has something to do with the state part of the form being a select menu instead of a text box. I just need to get the PHP to catch that information, because in the email, the State: part is blank:

Name: Billy Bob
Email: [e-mail]
Phone: [phone]
Address: 600 Dumb Lane
City: Retard
State:
zip: 90210
Comments: Do you feel lucky?

Thanks guys!

change this:

<select id="state">

to this:

<select name="state">
