Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING

Maxassin

I am having a bit of trouble. I set up a form (well, I copied and pasted code from another guy http://www.templatemonster.com/help/how-create-contact-form-html.html) to send me an email when someone hits submit, and I keep getting the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home1/USERNAME REMOVED/public_html/index_files/contact.php on line 19

A copy of the contact.php minus my email is here:

<?php
$field_name = $_POST['cf_name'];
$field_email = $_POST['cf_email'];
$field_message = $_POST['cf_message'];

$mail_to = 'EMAIL REMOVED';
$subject = 'Message from a site visitor '.$field_name;

$body_message = 'From: '.$field_name."\n";
$body_message .= 'E-mail: '.$field_email."\n";
$body_message .= 'Message: '.$field_message;

$headers = 'From: '.$cf_email."\r\n";
$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$cf_email."\r\n

$mail_status = mail($mail_to, $subject, $body_message, $headers);

if ($mail_status) { ?>
	<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
		alert('Thank you for the message. We will contact you shortly.');
		window.location = 'WEBPAGE REMOVED';
	</script>
<?php
}
else { ?>
	<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
		alert('Message failed. Please, send an email to EMAIL REMOVED');
		window.location = 'WEBPAGE REMOVED';
	</script>
<?php
}
?>

Thanks in advance for the help, and sorry for being an idiot. I made the webpage from publisher. 🙂

this line:

$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$cf_email."\r\n

is missing a closing quote and semi-colon. It should be:

$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$cf_email."\r\n";

Just by looking at the color coding of the code should make it obvious that you missed closing a string and where it happened. If you don't use an editor with syntax highlighting, get one.

Thanks mate!

Yeah, I do have one with Syntax highlighting, just as I said, I don't know php pretty much at all, so I didn't know what to look for. I keep trying to learn how to code, and I keep forgetting everything, so programmers notepad just sits there on my pc.

And sorry for the double post!
