sendmail.php problem

I'm new at using php.

I am creating a basic html "contact us" form using php to send the data securely via email.

I posted the form and the screen turns blank when I hit the "submit" button.

Server is running PHP 5.2 with Mysql 5 and Apache 2
Viewing the page with Mozilla Firefox Browser 2.0
Site is wrapped in a custom tailored CMS based on Cake

Code is below...

Heya, kgrenier12. Welcome to TSDN!

My initial guess would be that your script is hitting an error, but it's not set up to display errors (the usual suspect when a script turns up blank). Check out this article:

My apologies for not doing that BEFORE I sent my message in.

I changed my php settings inside sendmail.php and still receive a blank screen.
I'm hesitant to change the global php ini settings because it's a production site.

I did notice that my file properties on the server are "RW" only not "RWX" do you think that would contribute to the problem? I am currently trying to reset the file property settings inside ftp but have been unsuccessful.

Thanks for your help,
