Ok, here is my code below. I am just learning this language and I need help with a question for a error message if statement.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Product Discount Calculator</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="main.css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
<h1>Product Discount Calculator</h1>
<form action="display_discount.php" method="post">
<div id="data">
<label>Product Description:</label>
<input type="text" name="product_description"
value=""/><br />
<label>List Price:</label>
<input type="text" name="list_price"
value=""/><br />
<label>Discount Percent:</label>
<input type="text" name="discount_percent"
value=""/>%<br />
</div>
<div id="buttons">
<label> </label>
<input type="submit" value="Calculate Discount" /><br />
</div>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Now here is my code for the display_discount.php
<?php
//get the data from the form
$product description = $_GET['product_description'];
$list_price = $_POST['list_price'];
$discount_percent = $_POST['discount_percent'];
//calculate the discount and discounted price
$discount = $list_price * $discount_percent * .01;
$discount_price = $list_price - $discount;
//apply currency formatting to the dollar and percent amounts
$list_price_formatted = "$".number_format($list_price, 2);
$discount_percent_formatted = $discount_percent."%";
$discount_formatted = "$".number_format($discount, 2);
$discount_price_formatted = "$".number_format($discount_price, 2);
?>

<div id="content">

<span><?php echo $product_description; ?></span><br>
<label>List Price:</label>

<label>Standard Discount:</label>
<span><?php echo $discount_percent_formatted; ?></span><br>
<label>Discount Amount:</label>
<span><?php echo $discount_formatted; ?></span><br>
<label>Discount Price:</label>
<span><?php echo $discount_price_formatted; ?></span><br>
</div>
</body>

I am certain my code is correct. I am having an error the server says on line 3 of the display_discount.php file. Not certain where that is coming from. Thank you in advance.
