Trying to make a simple form, which can be found here : [http://www.evolewtion.co.uk/mail.htm](http://www.evolewtion.co.uk/mail.htm)

but when I try to send the information, I am greeted with this error :

**Parse error** : parse error, unexpected T\_VARIABLE in **/home/wwwevol/public\_html/mail.php** on line **20**

Can somebody explain it/ Or even better, help me fix it 😃 ?
