Heya, NeedHelp. Welcome to TSDN!

You're missing a semicolon on line 2.

You're missing a semicolon on line 2.
I tried putting that in then the screen just comes up blank. No errors, but nothing else either.

get rid of the @ in front of mysql commands. That suppresses any error messages you may have from sql. Then rerun the script and see what you get.
In addition to that, you php script should probably execute when you get submit and not on reload.
