This is all good.. but I still have no idea of where to use them or how to
use them in this particular script. I'm way new to this and don't quite get
it. my script is as follows:

<?
$form_block = "
<form method=\"post\" action=\"$_server[php_self]\">
<p>Your Name:<br />
<input type=\"text\" name=\"sender_name\" size=\"30\"</p>

<p>Your Email Address:<br />
<input type=\"text\" name=\"sender_email\" size=\"30\"</p>

<p>Message:<br />
<textarea name=\"message\" cols=\"30\" rows=\"10\">
</textarea></p>
<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"op\" value=\"ds\">

<p><input type=\"submit\" value=\"submit\" value=\"Send\"></p>
</form>";

if ($_POST[op] != "ds") {
echo "$form_block";
} else if ($_POST[op] == "ds") {
if ($_POST[sender_name] == "") {
$name_err = "<p>Stop being a bonehead and enter your name.</p><br />";
$send = "no";
}
if ($_POST[sender_email] == "") {
$email_err = "<p>I'm slapping my head. Enter your e-mail address.</p><br
/>";
$send = "no";}
if ($_POST[message]== "") {
$message_err = "<p>Enter your message.</p><br />";
$send = "no";
}
if ($send != "no") {
$msg ="E-MAIL SENT FROM lobowalk.com \n";
        $msg .="Sender's Name:$_POST[sender_name]\n";
        $msg .="Sender's E-Mail:$_POST[sender_email]\n";
        $msg .="Message:$_POST[message]\n \n";

$to = "email adress here";
$subject = "Feedback from lobowalk";
$mailheaders .= "From: <> \n";
$mailheaders .= "Reply-to: $POST[sender_email]\n\n";
//send the mail
mail($to,$subject,$msg,$mailheaders);
//display confirmation to user
echo "<p>Your message is on it's way.</p>";
} else if ($send == "no") {
//print error messages
echo "$name_err";
echo "$email_err";
echo "$message_err";
echo "$form_block";
}
}
?>

Thanks, done feeding the baby,
Daniel
