and as has happened all the way through the talos_form page loads

the submit button comes up with

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in C:\wamp\www\form_response.php on line 28

and the third page when clicked on the query link works fine

I have been using your code ever sinc e you posted it and still no joy!!!!

I am using wamp by the way if that has any significance

February 10, 2011

I have done this both ways downloaded code and applied your names to the particular pages and applied my names to the pages and i get the same error!

I am wondering if there is something in the php settings panel that i need to change as i am not thick by any means and usually when i follow a training lesson i plough through it no worries...

Please can somebody help as this lesson has held me up all week now!!!

thankyou...

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in C:\wamp\www\form_response.php on line 28

the second page i called form_response.php and i get the above error when the button is pressed but it works ok on your link
