PHP Flash form help

[Kronikle88]

Hey,
I am new to PHP, and i have been reading up on it a little, but I seem to be having some trouble. In a flash website im making i created a form from a template i found. The original template had E-mail, Name, Comment fields, and the PHP code is as follow,

 
<?
 
$destination="[e-mail]";
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$mes=$_POST['comments'];
$subject="Message from $name" ;
$mes="Name : $name\n
Email: $email\n
Comments: $mes\n";
mail($destination,$subject,$mes); ?>
 
 

In the flash video, i added a few fields, Street Address, City, State, Zip, Favorite Designers, and i reformated the code to this, but now it doesnt work at all. If anyone can assist me in what i am doing wrong, i would be greatly happy.

 
<?
 
$destination="[e-mail]";
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$mes=$_POST['street'];
$mes=$_POST['city'];
$mes=$_POST['state'];
$mes=$_POST['zip'];
$mes=$_POST['designer'];
$mes=$_POST['comments'];
$subject="LINK WEBSITE Form, From $name" ;
$mes="Name : $name\n
Email: $email\n
Street Address: $street\n";
City/Town: $city\n";
State: $state\n";
Zip: $zip\n";
Favorite Designers: $designer\n";
Comments: $mes\n";
mail($destination,$subject,$mes); ?>

Notice the quotes and semicolons i took out.
They are used to end strings... you were ending strings that hadnt even started :P

[php]
$destination="[e-mail]";
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$mes=$_POST['street'];
$mes=$_POST['city'];
$mes=$_POST['state'];
$mes=$_POST['zip'];

I don't understand why you are changing the $mes variable? Shouldn't it be:
[php]
$destination="[e-mail]";
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$street=$_POST['street'];
$city=$_POST['city'];
$state=$_POST['state'];
$zip=$_POST['zip'];
$designer=$_POST['designer'];
$comments=$_POST['comments'];
$subject="LINK WEBSITE Form, From $name" ;
$mes="Name : $name\n
Email: $email\n
Street Address: $street\n
City/Town: $city\n
State: $state\n
Zip: $zip\n
Favorite Designers: $designer\n
Comments: $comments\n";
mail($destination,$subject,$mes); ?>
[/php]
