I've to implement a php script in a web page to send mail.
If I use a .html form and a separate .php script, all works fine.
In the contrary, if I try to put the script into the .html file,
I've some troubles... Here's the code:

When I try to open the page, I receive this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /var/www/netsons.org/samiel/form2.php on line 79

Do u see my error?

{Copies, pastes into editor that will number the lines ...}

Well, looking in the vicinity of line 79, i'd say the problem lies with your reversed PHP tags:

<input name="name" size="50" maxlength="40" value=?> echo $name. <?">

You've got another right below that:

<input name="subject" size="50" maxlength="40" value="?>echo $subject;<?>

And another:

<textarea name="msg" cols="50" rows="8">?> echo $message;<?</textarea>

Some other points:

- You can do without the "echo" by using, eg. <?= $message ?>

- Because this is an XHTML page, you should be closing your input tags and properly quoting the attributes: value="<?= $name ?>" />

- That your script's purpose is to send mail has nothing to do with how it displays in a browser.

Anyway, that should do it. Be sure to validate the page.
