<li>All artwork must be submitted with some name, if you choose to remain anonymous then put "ANONYMOUS" under the name feild in the submission form</li>
<li>You are able to submit up to 12 different works of art but it does not ensure that we will have space to use them all, if the artwork is good enough you might become our "Featured Artist"! </li>

the MAILER.PHP form looks like this
<?PHP
$to = "ADD YOUR EMAIL HERE";
$subject = "Results from your Request Info form";
$headers = "From: Form Mailer";
$forward = 0;
$location = "";
$date = date ("l, F jS, Y");
$time = date ("h:i A");
$msg = "Below is the result of your feedback form. It was submitted on $date at $time.
";
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST") {
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$msg .= ucfirst ($key) ." : ". $value . "
";
}
}
else {
foreach ($_GET as $key => $value) {
$msg .= ucfirst ($key) ." : ". $value . "
";
}
}
mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers);
if ($forward == 1) {
header ("Location:$location");
}
else {
echo "Thank you for submitting our form. We will get back to you as soon as possible.";
}
?>
and when the script runs i get this error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /homepages/11/d198354675/htdocs/conartistszine/mailer.php on line **5
**my goal is to get the script to upload the files, send me an email telling me who uploaded what and when and then to take them either back to the home page or to lead them to a page saying something simple like “thanks for submitting blah blah blah” if anyone knows why its failing out please help me! im desperate! thanks so much
