Php Mail Script Wont Work :(

pbrugge
My script wont work and I cant figure out where I did go wrong

The form looks like this:
CODE

<form name="member-request" action="index.php?page=request" method="post">
  <p><b>Gender:</b></p>
  <ul>
  <input type="radio" name="gen" value="1" />Male
  <input type="radio" name="gen" value="2" />Female
  </ul>
  <p><b>Your Name:</b></p>
   <p><input type="text" size="40" name="name"  class="forminput"></p>
  <p><b>Hotmail:</b></p>
   <p><input type="text" size="40" name="email" class="forminput"></p>
  <p><b>small word about yourself:</b></p>
   <p><textarea rows="6" cols="40" name="message" class="forminput"></textarea></p>
  <p><b>what do you like about worms?:</b></p>
   <p><textarea rows="6" cols="40" name="worms" class="forminput"></textarea></p>
  <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" style="cursor:pointer">&nbsp;<input type="reset" name="reset" value="Clear" style="cursor:pointer"></p>
         </form>


"index.php?page=request" point to mail.php which is set in the index.php

CODE

case "request":
include('mail.php');
     break;


I have done so because that way the layout stays the same.

My mail.php looks like this:

CODE

<div id="contentContainer">
 <div class="cont">
  <div class="contsection">*****</div>
  <div class="conthead">
   <h1>Will you get wormed today?</h1>
  </div>
  <?php>
   $formsent=mail("request@wormsparty.info", "request form", "Request from: $name \r\ngender $gen
   \r\nabout self: $message \r\nabout worms: $worms" "From: $email\r\nbounce-to:request@wormsparty.info");

    if($formsent==1)
     {
     echo "<p>Hello, $name. We have recieved your request/question. We will get back to you as fast as we can,<br />
     Best regards WormsParty.info team</p>";
     }
    else
     {
     echo "<p>I am sorry, $name. We did not recieve your request/question. Please try again or use the mail address on the contact page</p>";
     }
   </?>
 </div>
</div>


It does nothing at all, the mail is not send and I dont get a error or what so ever, the content of the page ( mail.php) stays blank sad.gif

please help me figure this out...

thx

I assume that it's a copy/paste error, but

CODE
form name="member-request" action="index.php?page=request" method="post">


needs to have a "<" in front of it, like this:

CODE
<form name="member-request" action="index.php?page=request" method="post">


I doubt that's it, but who knows...

You assumed right it was a copy/paste error so it had nothing to do with the problem biggrin.gif

This should work, according to my crash course in php. I plan to piggyback off this and make a script. Although first... need to learn mysql.. *cries*

Chances are one reason is didn't work is because programming is piggy when you use
CODE
if($VAR==$VAR2)

I know for a fact it will reguard it as an invalid syntax (just like in mIRC.)

So be sure to parse correctly and use
CODE
if($VAR == $VAR2)

Probably, your web server does not support the mail() function.
