I think you should post your code too, not only the error message.

Hi bluetoot,

You are missing some comma's seperating your SET variables.
birthplace = '$birthplace',
for example.

Also, please use the CODE tags when posting code, it makes it much easier to read.

Hope this helps.

thanks Zagga it worked but i have another error message on line 108

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in

this is the code
$headers = "To: webmaster<spicysaratx@yahoo.com>\r\n";

this is here
/* additional headers */
$headers = "To: webmaster<spicysaratx@yahoo.com>\r\n";
$headers .= "From:"."$email"."\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-to:"."$email"."\r\n";
$headers .= phpversion();

/* and now mail it */

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL
