Hi, I’m doing a PHP form for the first time and used a kirupa tut to do it…i added the code as stated on the send button…and then this is the message that comes up:

**Error** Scene=contact, layer=Layer 5, frame=15:Line 1: Statement must appear within on handler  
form.loadVariables(“email.php”, “POST”);  
Total ActionScript Errors: 1 Reported Errors: 1

if anyone knows what this means or how i can fix it…please let me know. thanks.
