$n=$_POST['name'];
$m=$_POST['message'];
}
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
 $message=$_POST['message'];

   $name=$_POST['name'];
   
   

   

   if(strlen($message)<1)

   {

   print "You did not type amessage."; //no name entered

   }

   else if(strlen($name)<1)

   {

      print "You did not type name."; //no post entered

   }


  
  else

   {
      $thedate=date("U"); //get unix timestamp

      $displaytime=date("F j, Y, g:i a");

      //we now strip HTML injections
      $message=strip_tags($message);

      $name=strip_tags($name); 
	  
			 	
     $insertpost="INSERT INTO shout (message,name) values('$message','$name')";
